This needs fixing in Devuan, not refractainstaller. After my edit to
/etc/default/grub, the actual installation now shows correctly but
Devuan installs on other partitions still show as "unknown linux
distribution". There's an old list thread somewhere on that, I haven't
found it yet. I think it's to do with os-prober.

BTW refractainstaller pauses near the end, while the target partition
is still mounted, allowing do do any manual tweaks or edits.
