I saw the previous posts about this, which referred to /dev/xvda,
(whatever that is) and wasn't sure how that translated to a situation
using /dev/sda.
What is the mantra for creating /dev/sda ? I've never understood
major/minor numbers...
cheers

In my case, the error message is
/boot/grub$ sudo update-grub
Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub
warning: grub-probe can't find drive for /dev/sda1.
grub-probe: error: Cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sda1. Check your
device.map.
Does both /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 exist?
