Apologies -- I probably made it less clear rather than more with the
above -- I mean that Debian GRUB is insisting on using /dev/sdX2 _for
the LFS menu entry_. For its own menu entry it works fine, because my
bookworm installation is using LVM.
There is and ever has been only one GRUB on this system -- Debian's.
That's why I am asking about this on a Debian list. My goal here is to
configure Debian's GRUB to boot LFS as a secondary option alongside
the primary option of Debian, and have that survive kernel updates for
Debian, and I am there, except for persuading it not to specify
"root=/dev/sdX2" for the root filesystem in the LFS linux command
line, and instead persuading ti to specify "root=PARTUUID=<part UUID>"
which grub-mkconfig's documentation says is what it will do when there
is no initrd and the GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_{PART,}UUID variables are set
to false.
