Grub menu. (I don't see a UEFI menu)

Good.

No output. (yes, I ran it as root)

I'm not sure how to answer that question. The first OS I installed was
OpenSUSE. Then I installed Debian 8.6 twice (on the two separate drives in
the system). All three of these entries are still there even after running
update-grub.
I wouldn't care about the extra entries except that the OpenSUSE entry is the
default. I want Debian to be the default (and, yes there is only one
instance of Debian installed). Yes I tried changing the value of the default
before I ran update-grub, but that didn't help.
Thanks for any help,
Mark
