Well,
https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Multi_002dboot-manual-config.html
suggests there's problems with os-prober, and I can Google reports of it
hanging when you've a no-OS-installed USB stick installed, etc.

That installation I edited was placed on the machine by Dell then?
Sorry, I know you've explained, but there's a lot of other things to
remember.  :-)
