Did you install one in legacy mode and the other in UEFI mode?

Is GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR= in /etc/default/grub the same for both UEFI installations? If
yes, very likely this is the root problem, because you didn't touch it for either
installation. With UEFI, a directory in \EFI\ on the FAT ESP filesystem is
responsible for booting. If UEFI applies to both and there is only one ESP in the
PC, one of your installations has overwritten the first installed, because the
result of GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR= in both is \EFI\debian aka /boot/efi/EFI/debian. Your
BIOS only knows about the installation pointed to by whichever had last written to
that location.

Please provide output from

	efibootmgr -v
	lsblk -f
	cat /etc/fstab	# from both installations
