My BBS menu contains 4 entries corresponding to output from efibootmgr, with the highlight on the one beginning "opensusetw", as configured via GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=.
Or it just coincides with the configured value. My expectation is that EFI/opensusetw/grub.cfg is still hardcoded in your grubx64.efi. I tried earlier "install-grub --bootloader-id", but there was a pitfall in the case of enabled SecureBoot: grubx64.efi and grub.cfg were taken from different ESP directories that is not apparent in some cases.
My custom.cfg is 100% managed by me.

This is KISS applied to multibooting with UEFI.
Sorry, but this time I would prefer to leave aside grub configuration unrelated to UEFI. I have never had intention to dispute that it is possible to configure multiboot using grub. Multiboot using UEFI facilities directly is a bit different beast.
printf "GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=%s\n" mydeb \ >/etc/default/grub.d/distributor.cfg update-grub grep --count mydeb /boot/grub/grub.cfg 8Do we know that the update-grub command normally writes to /boot/efi/EFI/, and NVRAM (optional?)?
Actually I tried dpkg-reconfigure for grub and shim packages and your message made me thinking that you may correct me and may provide proper commands to configure *UEFI* boot menu.
