OK,
This is correct, but is is absolutely confusing !!!
Same name 2 different files !
Are there both generated by grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg ?
I do not think so, if I check the date of creation.
How is generated /boot/grub2/grub.cfg ?

There should be two:
/boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
The first one has a few lines to find and load the 2nd one.

Hello,
If I have several distributions on a single machine with several
disks, should I have a single /boot/efi ?
