Yes.
only when it is invoked with "debian" as the bootloader id? That seems
When it is invoked without --bootloader-id, which results in using the default name "debian".
troubling. What if I named it to "windows", would it then go delete all my windows installs?
I have not tested this.Anyway, on UEFI machines with only one boot loader (per disk if RAID), I don't rely on EFI boot entries (too flaky) and install GRUB in the "removable device path" (default EFI path) with --removable.
