I installed it from the Calamaries Installer found in the LIVE USB ISO this time. And Instead of my primary hdd, I installed it on the other one. Works now, thanks for all of your support, dear nerds.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This error (hd0) is typical of legacy (BIOS) booting end happens solely because of the MBR. GRUB2 is hit or miss with MBR.
If you're not planning on dual booting with Windows XP/Vista/7, I'd recommend going to your motherboard settings and changing the boot mode to UEFI.
Then reinstall Debian. That will automatically sort things out :)
I strongly suspect that it's the motherboard's boot mode as well. The Debian installer will use an MBR partition table if your system uses BIOS boot.
I thought the only reason to still use GRUB2 was its MBR support.
We really should be moving on at this point.
what's next?
