Hello friends, how are you all? I hope everything´s ok. Well, I don´t know
if am I doing right of ask you guys a little help, but maybe this could be
an error generated inside debian debootstrap and for me any direction or
suggestion will be welcomed.

I´m trying to make a root fs inside my arm application following those
commands...


mkdir ~/armel-rootfs
$ sudo debootstrap --arch=armel
--include=ifupdown,udev,procps,netbase,vim-tiny,module-init-tools,wget,openssh-server,screen,apmd
--foreign lenny ~/armel-rootfs http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian
$ cd ~/armel-rootfs
$ tar cfjv ../armel-rootfs.tar.bz2 *


And then I copy the content of this tar.bz2 inside an SDcard where i will
boot my arm device.

Boot works fine and this bz2 extract inside my sdcard a directory called
/debootstrap .

After setting my path and mounting proc, I go for deboostraping .deb
packages.

# /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage

When i make this, debootstrap begins to run and debootstrap begin


I: Retrieving
I: Validating

All packages... No problems until when debootstrap will validate sysvinit
some problem occur:

And exits abnormally giving me this message:

timeout opening/writing control channel /dev/initctl


Is there anyway to solve this problem? I try a lot of things, but nothing
fixed it.

Can anyone give me some directions on how to proceed?


I really appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,


Carlos Guedes
