Hi, I've tested that if you build a debian-installer netboot image with latest version of binutils, then you get a broken image. Downgrading binutils (without touching anything else) fixed it. Steps to reproduce in up-to-date sid with a version of debian-installer in which mklibs were not replaced with mklibs-copy:
1. apt-get source debian-installer 2. apt-get build-dep debian-installer 3. cd debian-installer-20110106+squeeze1/build/ 4. make build_netboot 5. sudo chroot tmp/netboot/tree /bin/sh This will exit with a non-zero exit code as /bin/sh points to busybox which segfaults immediately. 6. Downgrade binutils to 2.21.0.20110327-3. 7. make reallyclean 8. make build_netboot 9. sudo chroot tmp/netboot/tree /bin/sh This will drop you into a busybox shell because everything is working properly.
