NAME
       grub-install - install GRUB on your drive

SYNOPSIS
       grub-install [OPTION] install_device

DESCRIPTION
       Install GRUB on your drive.

       -h, --help
              print this message and exit

       -v, --version
              print the version information and exit

       --root-directory=DIR
              install GRUB images under the directory DIR instead of the root directory

       --grub-shell=FILE
              use FILE as the grub shell

       --no-floppy
              do not probe any floppy drive

       --force-lba
              force GRUB to use LBA mode even for a buggy BIOS

       --recheck
              probe a device map even if it already exists

              This option is unreliable and its use is strongly discouraged.

       INSTALL_DEVICE can be a GRUB device name or a system device filename.

       grub-install  copies  GRUB  images  into  the DIR/boot directory specfied by --root-directory, and uses the grub shell to
       install grub into the boot sector.
