<p>Just do:<br>
</p>
<p>grub-install /dev/sda1</p>
<p>...but don't you really want to install grub to the drive
itself? If do:</p>
<p>grub-install /dev/sda</p>

<div dir="ltr">I messed up. I installed mint18 on my external
drive but mint18 is not quite ready for prime time so I figured
I would put mint 17.3 on. Well, durring installation I told it
to put grub on the external drive. now I can't boot unless the
external drive is plugged in. I need the port the external is
plugged into because that is the only USB port it will boot from
and I need that port for the thumb drive. So my question is
how do I install grub to sda1......
