You tried to install grub to /dev/sdb2, and this is not possible. It needs to be installed to /dev/sda ( or /dev/sdb if that is the drive your bios boots from ).

The thing is that it wasn't ME that tried to install grub to /dev/sdb2, it was ubuntu. I haven't done anything. That's the bug, Ubuntu suggested something that is not possible.
