This is because you have different /boot directories for each linux installation. Grub uses only one of them, based on the "groot=(hdx,y)" line in /boot/grub/menu.lst when GRUB was installed. Currently it is using the one from the Ubuntu installation, not the one from the Debian installation. What you need is to do is RTFM on how GRUB works. > How can I reinstall grub from my Debian installation? > I think even after installation of Debain, 'base-config' should allow > reinstallation of Grub. Did I miss anything here? You can reinstall grub using grub's own command line tool grub-install (see 'man grub-install'). Cheers, FJP
