I'm pretty sure the answer is yes. The last time I looked not that long ago the 
multiple device scenario wasn't supported.

   Dammit.

   Thanks for the info. At least this means I don't have to struggle
with the syslinux error I've been getting... Back to grub, then.

I'm seeing in changelogs that 4.0 brought btrfs support, 4.06 brought subvolume 
support. Nothing in changelogs for versions 5 and 6 so far inclusive. And 
interestingly enough, Fedora's koji only has 4.05 current for F20 and rawhide.

   Yeah, Debian have 4.05 in everything except experimental (which is
6.02~pre16).
