It rewrites *only* the Debian Automatic Kernel section, based on
whatever rules you specify above. Make your changes only in the one
location up top where the settings go.

No it's not. It explicitly says not to edit between the Debian
Automagic Kernel lines. The Windows info should be outside of that
area--either before it begins or after it ends. Only that area is
rewritten.
