First of all, thanks to all who offered help. 

Here is the situation.  I have a project that would require installation of 
software on a Debian server. Ergo, I purchased a 1 terrabyte sata disk and 
wanted to use 1/2 for Debian.

It would be the hd1  (/dev/hdb) 

My hd0 /dev/hda contained centos5    (precious to me)

Try as I may, either I made errors, or I was unable to configure Debian grub 
after the install, that I ran into difficulties. 
So, I gave the entire disk to Debian, which was very happy and it installed 
grub2 on /dev/hda, wiping out grub.

Today, I took the grub.conf from Centos, and manually converted the centos 
settins it to Grub2 format.  Voila. I am up and running again, with both Debian 
or Centos.

So all is well that ends well.
