Hi,

After install the debian,

it goes to debian OS system directly, without showing me the option of
start Mac OS or debian OS.

Any suggestions, thanks,

Good afternoon Lina

Try holding the alt key as you boot.  You should get a few icons to choose osx or linux. 


If not, please send us output of command df -h

Good morning Lina

I don't get that the partitions aren't showing sda1 to sda15.  I would expect osx to be on sda3 or sda4 from memory.  And my version of osx didn't have a separate swap partition. So what are the other missing partitions? 

Are there any  other partitions listed in the devices section of your file manager that didn't mount? I haven't had a dual boot system for so long I don't recall the names, but you will recognise the names from your osx install. 

Failing that have you checked what gparted lists. 

What is /etc/fstab listing?   I think the osx partitions will be listed as not auto mounting. 


I did think later last night, when I said hold the alt key, I meant hold it from when the boot process starts (power button on cold start) until you get the menu of icons. This feels like forever on my 2008 macbook. I trust it is getting quicker.  And you will get a menu.

Hi, you can open the Terminal and type:
# grub-install /dev/sda1

And
# update-grub2

This will do what you need.
