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
