My first post as a new thread to this list.
Using 'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' which as I said on
the FedoraForums is the correct way to create a boot grub.cfg
(/boot/grub is empty except for the splash file - no grub.cfg)

Windows boots with no problems. Ubunt and openSUSE had to be tweaked
because of permissions problems - fine now.
OpenSUSE menuentry as crated by running 'update-grub' on Ubuntu with
30_os-prober executable.
I now wish to be able to install Fedora Grub2 on a primary partition on
my second hd - /dev/sdb2.
All / partitions are on LV's.
