I'm a little concerned about the "/mandrake" portion of the initrd line 
in the Mandrake stanza, but other than that, it looks pretty good. I do 
notice you don't have a "prompt" line, which means you won't get a 
prompt for which system you want to boot into; it'll just rush into the 
default ("debian", in this case) system.
