updating/installing grub might solve the lack of grub boot screen. I

Debian has no issues with uefi, at least stretch.
ps multiboot is the old way, if you have the hardware, virtualization
works great. I use Debian with Win7 as a guest..runs fine..caveat, I
have an OEM Win7 disk.,

suppose I now install Trinity. should I let it
write to the mbr or
rather to its own partition?
I am confused, or you are confused, or we are both confused. Trinity is a desktop environment, not an
operating system.
you're right, of course. I usually install DE and OS together. thus the
conflation.
The mbr doesn't come into it. Install the
relevant operating system,
with or without a DE, then install Trinity from the Trinity
repositories as you would any other software from your distros
repositories. Then it cannot muck up your other OS's.
