I can see that the appropriate other Sway files are in the /boot tree so I am guessing that grub2 somehow knows the proper, default boot image -
even though the default does not have a menuentry in grub.cfg?

I bet it's related to BootLoaderSpec. If you look at the

  ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###

section of grub.cfg you will see:

  # The blscfg command parses the BootLoaderSpec files stored in
# /boot/loader/entries and populates the boot menu. Please refer to the Boot
  # Loader Specification documentation for the files format:
  # https://systemd.io/BOOT_LOADER_SPECIFICATION/.


Ah - that sounds promising! - I will have a look at that - I would like a better understanding of how grub2 operates before I start messing around with adding entries to grub.cfg manually . .

Thanks!

Phil.
