I'm not sure if I completely understood the advice in this URL,
or rather you would apply it, as you say, with a Live CD.

As I understand it, I boot my Live Fedora USB stick,
open a terminal window and type
  grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

I presume this is after mounting the /boot partition on my machine,
so perhaps this should be (?)
  grub2-mkconfig -o /mnt/boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Then I say
  grub2-install /dev/sda
or should this be
  grub2-install --directory=/mnt /dev/sda
?
