Just be aware that auto-detecting kernels is not done by grub, but by a
separate utility called os-prober.
The os-prober conmprises a bunch of shell scripts, which you will have
to read to investigate further, since it ships with absolutely zero
documentation.
Due in part to these aspects, but mostly because I have a bunch of
legacy systems that have all kind of unmaintained junk in the grub part
of their /boot directory, I have removed os-prober and entered my stuff
manually in /etc/grub/40-custom on the system where the active grub
dwells so I know what I'm doing.
