Hi!
I've been working for a few hours in a GRUB port to i386/OFW. There's
quite a bit of things that need cleanup/fix before it can be considered
complete, but it's in a stage that boots and lets you do basic things (like
listing storage devices).
It's known to work on OLPC / XO. I don't have a working unit myself, but
someone from #olpc was kind enough to test it and even provided a screenshot:

I'll be gradually integrating this into official GRUB tree. In the meantime,
if you want to try it:
- checkout GRUB cvs (grub2 module)
- apply attached patch
- ./autogen.sh && ./configure --with-platform=ieee1275 && make kernel.elf
