The code submitted by Sun to GRUB is version 2, and you can see that in the
first GRUB version with ZFS (0.97 - I posted the url earlier).
However, GRUB opted to go higher ("or at your option any later version")
sometime before the GRUB 2 release. I took the latest version available or
the sources at the time of porting.
However, there is only one functional source change between the versions,
and that is adding ashift support, which was supplied as a patch.
That "ZFS" and "license" produces a knee-jerk reaction is a little tedious.
It is not the problem everyone thinks, and I invite you to run ZFS on Linux
native. http://zfsonlinux.org/
