I have Windows 7 (64 bit) on my primary hard drive. I created an image of 
debian on a CD using .iso file and installed debian on an external hard drive. 
It insatlled successfully without any problem. I had created just single 
partition on whole external hard drive.

When I try to boot the system from the external hard drive(using BIOS boot 
options), system complains "file not found" and goes in rescue mode.

I suspect that grub did not get added to master boot record of first hard 
drive. I tried to reinstall grub using the CD in rescue mode, but it fails to 
install.

Bottom line is debian is present there on external hard drive but I cannot boot 
it. Can anybody help me.

Thanks
Abhishek Sharma
