There was no error in first stage. grub-installer found my old Debian system (it was listed as Debian GNU/Linux ....). It did not found QNX, but I do not think that it is a problem. After reboot grub appeared with following menu: Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.26-1-686 Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.26-1-686 (recovery mode) QNX Momentix (on /dev/hda6) There was no other Debian GNU/Linux listed in menu and /dev/hda6 device is really root partition of old Debian system. That not only problem. Commands for loading "QNX Momentix...": root (hd0,5) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.3 ro root=/dev/hda6 initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.4.26-1-686 savedefault boot Kernel 2.6.3 was not default in old system. I am not sure that this kernel will boot with that initrd ;-) My old grub.conf attached. Booted new Debian system. During boot some program detected that I have nvidia card and loaded framebuffer module. After that I had 3 cursors instead of one :-) (one big graphical cursor, and too small "cursors" on top of sreen with blue line). I do not think that loading framebuffer module is really necessery. During passwd configuration I was asked about my full name. I entered my name in Ukrainian. After that passwd suggested me my first name as default value for login - will it work? :-)
