The config file syntax is a mess indeed.  The fact that you need a
config generator tool in the first place speaks volumes ...

But note that grub config files don't have to be as complex as the
grub2-mkconfig generated ones.

Image boots in both uefi (sd-boot) and bios (grub2) mode, and the config
file for the latter is so short that I can include it here without
hitting the mailing list size limit ;)

------------------------------ cut here ------------------------------
function load_video {
insmod all_video

insmod part_gpt

set boot='hd0,gpt2'

take care,
