/boot contains a symlink to itself
See screenshot, is this normal? Safe to remove, or should it just be left alone?
For background: I originally was dual booting with Windows on same drive. Wiped the Windows partition out last week and was having a peek to see if I could easily clean out the boot partitions and remove the entry from GRUB without having to do a full reinstall on an empty disk. Noticed this tonight.
(Also, appreciate any help or links to decent resources on removing windows from boot/grub).

Solution
oh ok, so you were sharing an EFI partition with Windows. In that case open up /boot/efi/EFI and you'll see a folder called Microsoft you should be able to remove that it will no longer pick up Windows
