I created a multiboot setup a couple of weeks ago (XP, ME, DOS, and Debian). The installer defaults to 'grub' instead of 'lilo', and that works very well IMHO. If you have resized your ME partition before installing Debian, then the debian-installer should be able to install grub to your hard drive's MBR and create options for both Debian and ME for you.
