This is on UEFI hardware? Because a 200MB partition formatted vfat, the flag should be boot to make it an EFI System partition. Whereas if this is BIOS hardware, the flag bios_grub is for the GRUB core.img and only needs to be 1MB, not 200. > > > [root@xiphos ~]# mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/1/ > mount: you must specify the filesystem type So I think what you've got is BIOS hardware, and upon installing GRUB, it overwrote sdb1 with the core.img which doesn't require a file system at all. And isn't mountable. Your grub.cfg and associated mod files, etc need to go on sdb2. That's what you should mount and point the root directory to.
