This is rather strange.  You say you ran grub-update, but those entries 
do not look like auto-generated entries that I'm familiar with from 
grub2.  The search directive is missing, for one, and the default kernel 
options are completely different.

Have you, by any chance, modified the files in /etc/grub.d to create a 
custom boot menu, perhaps following some instructions from someone?
