Indeed, but GRUB is not the only piece of software involved in the boot
process. I know by experience that some broken BIOS or UEFI firmwares
require that a primary partition have the boot flag set. Also, the
standard boot code in the MBR requires it too, so if you install GRUB's
boot image in a partition instead of in the MBR, you need to set the
boot flag on that partition.

Or you can open one of the shells of the Debian installer and run
parted, fdisk or cfdisk.
