How are you becoming root? In ascii, either 'su' or 'su -' will give you
*/sbin in your path.
When I am root by means of su - I get the following:
$ su -
# grub-install
Installing for i386-pc platform.
grub-install: error: install device isn't specified.
# /usr/sbin/grub-install
Installing for i386-pc platform.
/usr/sbin/grub-install: error: install device isn't specified.
In the second case (su -) it finds the command and fails because you
didn't tell it where to put the bootloader. Like this:
grub-install /dev/sdb
And then you can run update-grub (for which you do not specify a device.)
Please also run/check the following:
uname -r
cat /etc/issue
cat /etc/devuan_version
apt-cache policy util-linux
