should help you get started.

roughly, after booting from the disk, from a command line (xterm or tty) 
you'll need to mount the debian partitions that you would want to work 
with (mount /dev/hd5 /mnt/hda5) and from there, chroot that directory, 
and from within the chroot mount the /boot partition; you may also need 
to mount /proc but this depends on your setup.
