1 My new installation is running well, in particular it boots fine.
2 However the grub2-mkconfig seems odd.

4 It finds linux (all kernels) and the stub windows partition. But then I

6 which is the extended partition. Perhaps the fact that the windows
7 partitions sda[23] don't really have windows on them yet is part of the
8 answer??
