It's not cross-install that requires this. It is the dpkg binary which uses this to check for root. Providing a stub for it is completely sufficient, for example: ln -s /bin/false /usr/local/bin/start-stop-daemon. Also set your PATH to include /sbin and /usr/sbin. > I then went to sleep, so I'll be doing the native install tonight.
