Yep. Matt was more asking about other (non-Loongson) MIPS systems,

Hi, I'm an user, not a dev, but I own a lemote mini-pc, not the
laptop, and the linux kernel for loongson-2f can be loaded through
initrd. Actually that's the way archloong does it. This doesn't have
anything to do to the ability to boot with grub. Actually archloong
does not support grub (neith
