Grub menu.  (I don't see a UEFI menu)

Good.

No output. (yes, I ran it as root)

I'm not sure how to answer that question.  The first OS I installed was 
OpenSUSE.  Then I installed Debian 8.6 twice (on the two separate drives in 
the system).  All three of these entries are still there even after running 
update-grub.

I wouldn't care about the extra entries except that the OpenSUSE entry is the 
default.  I want  Debian to be the default (and, yes there is only one 
instance of Debian installed).  Yes I tried changing the value of the default 
before I ran update-grub, but that didn't help.

Thanks for any help,

Mark
