Look at /sys/boot/i386/boot0/boot0.s (for i386). I'm not sure that there is free space in boot0, check this. If there is free space in boot0, then you can modify it. If boot0 doesn't have free space, then you can remove some file system names from boot0.s and add names you need. You should make modification of boot0 code very _carefully_ and test boot0 with the _floppy_. And double check that boot0 actually can't understand your file system, check if boot0.s doesn't have partition id in tables: (look at the end of boot0.s).
