Firstly, you would typically reply to the list, and not to me personally. Please only reply to the list from now on.

how can i do  now?

You might try update-grub2 instead?

The binary update-grub is provided by the packages
grub-legacy and grub-pc in debian 6 (I assume you are using the i386 or amd64 architecture). Do you have any of them installed?

One way of seeing which packages are installed is to use aptitude:
The command 'aptitude search "grub ~i"' should show what grub-packages you have installed.

If you ensure that the package grub-pc is installed, and you still fail to run grub-install as root, then I have no more ideas right now.

Regards

Johan
