I booted the computer with a live CD.  I found the grub.cfg on the 
Debian partition.  Looking the file over I note an entry set root=' 
(hd1,msdos6)'.  I'm thinking I misdirected the grub installation.

If my thinking is correct, do I need to reinstall, or is there a command 
to reinstall to the MBR?  Or can I tell Fedora to find Debian and add it?

Thanks,

Bruce
