Comments/Problems:

The blinkenlights on the pair of keychains was very pretty as one of
them copied the hurd image to disk, and debs were installed from the
other. The hurd zcat beat the debootstrap. Grub told me:

  The following other operating systems have been detected on this computer:
  GNU/Hurd, Debian GNU/Linux (testing/unstable)

The other Debian install was a laftover from past installs. It wanted to
put grub in the MBR, and I answered yes.

8 minutes after booting d-i, I was at a grub menu. It offered to let me boot
debian or the hurd. Both worked fine.
