/boot/grub/grub.cfg menu entries



   On my machine I have 2 bootable Linux installs, one each on /dev/sdf1 and /
dev/sdg1. Grub *used to* detect the various partitions and creat entries for 
each one, but in this install it didn't do that.

  Looking at /boot/grub/grub.cfg it uses a function format that I don't 
recognize and cannot make easy sense of -- I just want a simple text entry to 
give me the option of booting off sdf1 or sdg1 in the grub menu.

   Can anyone whack me with a clue-bat or ELI5 me how I can edit/add an entry 
to grub.cfg? TIA.
