be the culprit? If yes, what's the correct way to get that
permanently out?
Yes, and same answer as the previous.

I'm back.
The unwanted memory test entry is gone from the grub menu. The
grub.cfg lines that I pasted into my previous post are gone.
The sda2 windows-7 entry is still in the grub menu, and the
corresponding lines are still in grub.cfg. I get the impression from
the grub2-mkconfig output that deleting those lines from grub.cfg
won't help; they'll just be restored. That menu entry is active, but
when I select it, the windows-7 boot starts, and later gets stuck. I
believe that that problem is out of the scope of this thread, so I'll
go no further with it. The sda1 windows-7 entry works fine.
What I started this thread for is fixed, so I'm tagging this thread
SOLVED. I thank everyone who tried to help.
Bill.
Windows has a startup partition as well as the main partition, windows
starts from the first. The grub2-mkconfig process picks up both. You can
delete it from grup2.cfg with a text editor. With the current primary
grub menu generation by blscfg usage grub2.cfg rarely gets rebuilt on
updates so the change will stay.
