Oh yes.
This is one trouble I have with rpi - there is an existing config.txt
and some of it seems to be necessary on some boards. But I don't have
the code to set up everything. Typically I just get a config from a
distro and that is how stays, with just an addition or two. If we can
generate it from scratch as you do here, then things are easier.
Regards,
Simon
