GRUB not installing

Hi. I am experiencing an extremely awkward issue in the GRUB installation stage of Arch Linux. So I type "grub-install --target=i386-pc --recheck /dev/sdb2" and when I press enter, it seems to be installing but then gives me this error "grub-install: error: disk 'lvmid/39VX10-WG4Y-4PP3-PbhF-R65x-8xhN-VBDcHD/qrzEtl-sZuG-swh6-NvBO-Volk-LreU-nZcvgj' not found.".
How can I fix this? I really want to get it working on my laptop too
I posted another post in the Newbie corner so if you want to find out more information, check that post too at the link below

Re: GRUB not installing

I suppose you are installing in a bios system.

where /dev/sdX is the disk (not a partition) where GRUB is to be installed.

You type a disk partition, /dev/sdb2. You need to type the disk, /dev/sdb.
