The precise answer to your question is, no, I haven't done that yet. By
"seeing" other stuff" I'm referring to grub-mkconfig. I thought it would
"out of the box." I know I can add those menu entries, and I'm going to.
I was hoping that when I booted the new system, it was completely
divorced from any artificialities of the host and would pick up on what
other stuff was on the computer. That didn't happen.
So the next step is to manually add those items. I haven't yet studied
deeply the scripts grub uses to look. Maybe it's just not worth it. If
it works, it works--I'm referring to manually adding those menu items.
