Code:
sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt

sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev

sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts

sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc

sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys

sudo chroot /mnt

grub-install /dev/sdX

grub-install --recheck /dev/sdX

update-grub

Replace X and Y with disk and partition number e.g. sda1

Code:
exit

sudo umount /mnt/sys

sudo umount /mnt/proc

sudo umount /mnt/dev/pts

sudo umount /mnt/dev

sudo umount /mnt

Then reboot

Ran a live cd and the /dev/sda1 is not seen, it is mounted at /mnt and won't let me unmount it because it is busy. lol. I have attached screenshots (hopefully).
