If running os-prober as root produces no output, then you will have to add it manually. If os-prober does pick it up, then run update-grub and it should work.

You could look at:

Yes I know the Linux mentioned there is Slackware, not Debian but it might still give you ideas. |

I would give this a shot.

Appears to need a custom menu entry to boot it. Looks pretty straight forward. |
