interesting is that your edited version has root on /dev/sda3. Is this
consistent with the partition you have marked as bootable (see fdisk)?

It does not need to be marked bootable. It does need to be the correct partition for the root partition. For that matter, the root partition does not need to be a primary partition. Depending on your BIOS, you may need one partition marked as bootable, but this is not requirement for Grub or booting Linux.

I have one system here with the /boot partition marked as bootable, andther where the Windows partition is marked as bootable, and an old RH7.3 system without a partition marked as bootable. All work fine.
