Yes, it varies depending on BIOS vs. UEFI boot. For bios boot, the grub
boot device is the drive whose mbr you want to use, like /dev/sda or /dev/sdb.

For UEFI, you don't name the device. Grub knows to put the bootloader in
the efi partition. In that case, an extra step above would be to mount the
efi partition to /sysroot/boot/efi

While you are still in the chroot, run:

update-grub

And that will make a new boot menu.
