Yes, that happens, usually because the initial conditions were
different from those assumed. Eg, Grub could have been in a
different state, as the commands I was using are typically i

Hello,
unfortunately, nothing David suggested worked, so I finally set it on in the
bios Legacy (via F12) and then reinstalled Debian.
Now if I turn on, Grub appears with Debian that starts (even if it takes a

Hi,
I was unable to install Grub. Via ‘rescue mode’ of installation cd, it doesn't
make me do it; takes me to the partitioning window. Then I did a reboot which
gave me a screenshot
error: file ‘/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod’ not found.

It might help if people pasted output into their posts, rather

Yes. Either boot Debian natively, or boot some sort of rescue system,

Hello,
yes HD is 1TB and Debian partition is 300GB (not Mb).
Currently Windows starts directly without reporting other OSes present.
So should I use the installation disk in "rescue mode" and reinstall Grub to
Debian's / partition (27.94 GiB dev/sda6)?
How to install os-prober?
I think I have

Whats the exact problem? GRUB does not show up and Windows boots
directly? You could try the rescue mode of the installer to reinstall
GRUB, reFind is normally not needed on a PC system to dual boot with
Windows.
Once you get GRUB up and running, you should consider installing the
package os-probe
I have installed Debian 11 on a Dell T1650 Desktop PC (i7 & 24 GB RAM).
I resized the 1GB HD leaving 300MB on which I installed Debian.
At the request of the installation of Grub I indicated the HD.
Now looking at it with Gparted the HD is divided as follows:
dev / sda1 EFI system partition
