I am moving my computer from Testing to Stable. I installed Stable on a new partition, and want to configure GRUB. But /boot/grub is missing! It was a routine install, except that I did not select "Desktop environment" in TaskSel. Why is /boot/grub missing? And how can I get it created? The computer is a two-year-old I386-based laptop. Some other info:

    masatran@masatran:~$ ls /boot
    config-2.6.18-4-486 initrd.img-2.6.18-4-486.bak vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-486     initrd.img-2.6.18-4-486 System.map-2.6.18-4-486

    masatran@masatran:~$ sudo aptitude search grub
