One note here, it definitely did not like /boot being on an extended
partition, and would not boot from that. I probably could have gotten
that working too, but by making /boot a primary partition, grub boots
fine the first time, with no tweaking.

To boot from an extended partition (isn't the correct name "logical partition"? :-? ), grub must reside in the MBR, or perhaps on another primary partition.

The scheme preferred on 10.3 is to install grub in the /boot partition and mark it bootable. The MBR will have a generic code, not grub. But logical partitions can not be marked bootable, I believe.
