I rebooted my server last week and when I tried to remove old kernels it
was stopping when trying to update grub. I ran update-grub2 on its own
and I get:

This is just guesswork, but:

«
`/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Seagate_Backup+_Hub_BK_NA8TT3NB-0:0', skipping.
grub-probe: info: Cannot stat
`/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Seagate_Expansion_NA84KDR3-0:0', skipping.

That doesn't look good. Remove that device/those devices and try again?

Re-ran grub-mkdevicemap and those are OK now.

Also, you seem to have a small /boot partition -- is that right? Is
there any free space in it?

Plenty of space on sda1.

Just tried installing grub on sdb and that also generates a "not a directory" error.

grub-probe works on all drives and partitions except /dev/sda1.
