Not exactly. This generally happens only with mdraid volumes. Without mdraid, grub2 should fit within 63 sectors

I do not have an mdraid on my laptop, and I still got the "embedded area
is too small" error when trying to run grub2-mkconfig. I was never able
to modify my grub2 configuration until I repartitioned the disk to
create a 2048 sector boot area.


I had the same issue
