I can't make a GRUB config
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
A few weeks ago, I accidentally updated my kernel, and out of nowhere I got these strange pixelated lines all over my screen. So, I decided to try and use the linux-lts kernel. But, when I tried to chroot into my root directory run grub-mkconfig /dev/sda
I got /usr/bin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)
I am running 32 bit Void.

Why are you usingchroot? Are you trying to do this from a recovery disk/live CD, or the system itself?

Generally speaking, before chrooting into a dir, mount bind /dev and /sys and mount -t proc the /proc. See the archlinux wiki wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/chroot

The Supergrub utility can boot an installation without a lot of trouble. Then you can fix your bootloader from inside the running distribution.
Supergrub
There is also the excellent SysrescueCD with more features except with more of a learning curve.
