For your question, you may want to drop to root and run grub-update and grub-install /dev/sdX where sdX might be /dev/sda in your case. I ran the command: grub-install /dev/sda and my rebooted. The Win XP now shows up in the list. However, my Debian install does not! My options are back to what they were before I installed Debian, which are Mint and XP. You ran 'grub-install /dev/sda' and 'update-grub'? Hugo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

First, just curious why are you saying Debian 6 as new? It has been released several years ago. For your question, you may want to drop to root and run grub-update and grub-install /dev/sdX where sdX might be /dev/sda in your case. 祝好, He who is worthy to receive his days and nights is worthy to receive* all else* from you (and me).
