After installing 'Debian 7 b4' on /dev/sda1, 'grub2' detected both of them. But only 'openSuse' was bootable by selecting from the boot-menu. 'Debian 4' wasn´t bootable from the grub2-menu anymore, even after many trials of editing the menu-entry. There may be a syntactical break between 'grub2' and 'grub'. My sugestion would be, to ship the installation with both: 'grub2' and 'grub legacy', as you did with 'Debian 5 (Lenny)'. Please, give me a re, if this is known problem installing 'grub2'.
