By default debian will install grub to the mbr. Once you've booted after 
install you can add any other OS you want to boot to 
your /boot/grub/menu.lst.

I have at times used multiple boot setups, you need to make sure you edit 
the /boot/grub/menu.lst that grub reads at boot time. Once you've installed 
debian you will be using debians grub unless you manually run grub from 
another install.
