It is difficult for me without looking at your print out of "sudo
grub-mkconfig" to make inference, (I'll would think it'll work) but
since you've got it working from your modifications, to ensure it'll
really work, go to /etc/grub.d/40_custom add your modifications there.
(kdesudo kate /etc/grub.d/40_custom) Your entries will be there when you
do "sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg"
Try out the machine generated and if all works, you can delete your
entries in 40_custom later. If not, you still have your modifications to
boot from.
Good luck.
