I've tried to reproduce this issue, unsuccessfully.

I remember being affect by it in the past, however. Could someone please confirm:

- That it's still an issue on artful (17.10).
- What the current version of grub2 they using is, with the output of "apt-cache policy grub2; apt-cache policy grub2-common"
- Please share the contents of /etc/default/grub and /etc/default/grub.d/* (in a pastebin ideally, such as pastebin.ubuntu.com)

On my machine running artful (grub2-common 2.02~beta3-4ubuntu7), running update-grub yields:

$ sudo update-grub

This looks like the desirable behavior. I would like to understand how my machines are different here (I tried on 16.04, 17.04 and 17.10 on GCE as well).
