I have a similar problem with Kali-Linux and Debian. Everytime I upgrade a kernel in kali-linux (which is on second drive), it overwrites grub on the first drive. My solution: I am booting "super-grub-disk-2" (google for it), and from this I can boot the old grub configuration. When booted into debian (by using super-grub-disk-2), I am able to reinstall grub on the first drive again. You can either use "dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" or "update-grub" or even just reinstall the package "grub-pc". I also tried to use the debian installation cd in rescue mode, but I never get success. At all, I am really not very happy with debian installation cd in rescue mode. My favourites are special live rescue cd's like Trinity-Rescue- Kit, RIP, Knoppix and GRML. Hope this helps a little bit. Good luck! Hans > Net install noticed that Windows 7 was present, said it would provide a > choice to select it in the boot menu, but failed to do that.
