Yep. You can load it into the DiskOnChip in place of their normal firmware, 
so that the system BIOS runs Grub instead of trying to boot normally. 

Then there are patches to grub itself to make it drive the DiskOnChip. 
Those patches aren't 100% perfect yet, but they're fairly close. They're in 
CVS.
