I tried the chroot method, but with little luck. I'm set up for BIOS
boot. My /root partion is /sdb1, and my broken out /boot partition is
/dev/sdb2. So for grub-root-device I use /dev/sdb1; for my
grub-boot-device I use /dev/sdb.

So I do
...
# chroot /sysroot
# grub-install /dev/sdb
bash grub-install: command not found
# ls -la /usr/sbin | grep grub-install
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 102046 Oct 28 2018 grub-install
# /usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/sdb
# bash: /usr/sbin/grub-install: No such file or directory
At my wits end I remove and reinstall grub2-common. Did not help.
If your shell can't find /usr/sbin/grub-install, it might not be in your
PATH.
There are several ways to check this. You can type
# which grub-install
and if you don't get a result, your shell doesn't know to look there.
You can also try
# echo $PATH | grep '/usr/sbin:'
to get an immediate, easy-to-read result.
