Detecting UFS partitions is not the same as detecting *BSD.
os-prober (~1.42) did not detect FreeBSD partitions,
so I had to write grub menu entries manually.
>% sudo os-prober
>/dev/sda1:Debian GNU/Linux (squeeze/sid):Debian:linux
os-prober detects the partition of old Debian only, no FreeBSD partition.
(I have two IDE hard disks on the PC, and use Debian on sdb1.)
