Hello!
First, I hope that the issue is not approached in a previous topic; if so, be kind to direct me to the relevant topic. I come here because I did find not a working answer searching Google.
I have two hard drives, one with Windows 10 and another with Debian 10 "Buster".
Windows 10 was installed first.
During installation of Debian 10 "Buster", Grub was installed in Debian hard drive. Windows 10 was not detected during Grub install. I know that are workarounds - but I didn't find a working one for me or it was rather confusing, as I'm sort of a newbie - but I would like to know the best way to accomplish the dual boot using two hard drives, each with its own OS.
It doesn't seem so elegant do enter BIOS each time I want to change working OS.
Thank you and best regards.

Re: Windows 10 not detected
Hello.
Thank you for your answer.
1. os-probe doesn't show any output
2.update-grub only recognizes Debian OS as shown:
I did install boot-info-script and ran bootinfoscript.
The output of bootinfoscript follows:
Thank you once again!

Re: Windows 10 not detected
I think you installed Debian to MBR boot and Windows to UEFI boot. If this is a new install, reinstall Debian with UEFI boot. Possibly there are other ways around it but I don't know much about that.

Re: Windows 10 not detected
BIOS boot (aka "legacy" boot).sunrat wrote:you installed Debian to MBR boot
A BIOS boot loader cannot chainload an EFI boot loader (and vice versa). In order to chainload the EFI Windows boot loader, you must install EFI GRUB with the grub-efi-amd64 package.
Warnings :
- Installing EFI GRUB requires an EFI partition mounted on /boot/efi. You may either use the existing one on the Windows drive or create a new one on the Debian drive. The former is obviously easier but makes Debian EFI boot depend on Windows drive. However this is not an issue if EFI boot is used only to be able to chainload Windows. Note that installing EFI GRUB won't remove the existing BIOS GRUB, so Debian can still boot in BIOS mode from its own drive.
- Installing EFI GRUB properly requires to boot Debian in EFI mode so that EFI services are available to register a boot entry. EFI services are not available when booting in BIOS/legacy mode as Debian currently does. You can boot in EFI mode with the Debian installer or a Debian live system if the medium was prepared properly (with dd, cp or the like - not with some fancy tool which modifies the contents of the ISO-hybrid image).
- You may install a copy of EFI GRUB in the "removable device path" of the EFI partition, i.e. /efi/boot/bootx64.efi. This special location is used as a fallback boot loader. It is currently used by Windows boot manager, which will be replaced with GRUB as the fallback boot loader. However any boot loader with a registered boot entry, like Windows boot manager, should have precedence over the removable device path by default.
- There is a well-know command in Windows starting with "bcdedit" which tell Windows to register GRUB as its boot loader instead of Windows boot manager. I don't know it by heart but you can find it easily on the web (the Debian wiki has it IIRC). Use at your own risks.
If you prefer to reinstall Debian, make sure you boot the installer in EFI mode (the boot screen will be a GRUB menu).
Re: Windows 10 not detected
Hello!
Thank for your replies.
Kind regards.
Thank for your replies.
It solved my problem. I did an installation in EFI mode after setting the BIOS to use "Boot From UEFI" from storage devices.If you prefer to reinstall Debian, make sure you boot the installer in EFI mode (the boot screen will be a GRUB menu).
Kind regards.
