Can you install grub2 to the MBR and have it boot both debian and MSWindows?

AFAIK, an MBR-installed grub doesn't care about partition boot flags. Only if you have a DOS MBR and grub installed to a PARTITION does the boot flag matter. Grub2 should be able to handle / and /boot on a logical partition. Actually, I prefer to use LVM rather than individual partitions, and grub2 CAN load kernels from an LVM / or /boot.
