Could you go into more detail about those various issues?
My off-the-cuff guess is that you don't currently plan to use GRUB2
because it's heavyweight for your use-case? So you'd either need to
shrink it down or else find a way to allow syslinux to work (either by
supporting XFS in it or using a /boot with ext4)?
That's pretty much it. :)
