Title:
  update-grub generate grub.cfg mess if 40_custom  contains submenu /s

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  (I am strongly/often using 40_custom with submenu/s .)
  When I created submenu/s in 40_custom file
  update-grub is going to generated submenu/s in 40_custom section of grub.cfg file  - that is correct.
  BUT as well all menuentries are taken from submenu/s of 40_custom file and put them in 30-os-probe section of grub.cfg file - it is not correct. update-grub / 30_os-prober should not be doing this.

  Is there any workarround for it ?

  Thank You,
  Kind Regards,
  Martin
