Yes, the patch definitely works. It is part of Fedora's GRUB2 src-rpm
package. But I changed the 10_linux.in file manually before compiling grub2.
The strange thing is that even without any initrd line in the menuentry, the
Fedora system boots successfully (my guess is that the Fedora's kernel
searches for its compatible initramfs file without relying on grub or
grub2).

As for documenting grub-extras, I don't know how to use a wiki . Also please
change the behavior of the "help" command as soon as possible. Thank you.
