Hi Francesco,
I was under the impression your grub configuration was correct and the only
thing wrong was not having it installed on that one HDD. Of course your
grub configuration should point to the correct root.

As far as I can determine reading this thread you have had a RAID1

Why is it obviously not sufficient? I would have said that it was. But you

Thanks for this, and I've tried it out but its still not deleting files, as

There is a programme, ported from ubuntu, called 'autotrash' in the repos.

Yay!
First, just curious why are you saying Debian 6 as "new"? It has been
released several years ago.
For your question, you may want to drop to root and run "grub-update" and
"grub-install /dev/sdX" where sdX might be /dev/sda in your case.
