It happens if the most recent 'grub2-install' happened with a Fedora 20 or older GRUB package. e.g. if you installed Fedora 20 clean, then did an OS upgrade every 6-12 months all the way through to Fedora 30, then you'd probably run into this bug. But if at any point from Fedora 21 and newer you ever did a 'grub2-install' you won't hit it.
I am not sure if this applies in my case and don't have any possibility to check for it anymore.
The pecularity of my system, is it using a gpt formated boot disk though it being a BIOS system (Using a 1M BIOS boot partition).
Does Fedora's updater support this case? The installer does.
The difference between dos- and gpt-labelled disks on bios firmware is that "core.img" is embedded in the MBR gap and in a bios-boot partition respectively.
