It worked well. Not flawlessly, but it created a system I can boot into (which I did, to check). I didn't try to install grub but I expect it would fail with the same problem I had installing it in the host the other day. The host system is qemu-i386. I created a 2nd hard drive to install onto. Approx. 1GB mounted on /dbst. Linux was not involved at all. The tail end of debootstrap.log is: Errors were encountered while processing: netbase tasksel tasksel-data dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of netbase: netbase depends on ifupdown (>= 0.6.4-4.9); however: Package ifupdown is not installed. dpkg: error processing netbase (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of tasksel: tasksel depends on aptitude (>= 0.2.15-1); however: Package aptitude is not installed. dpkg: error processing tasksel (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of tasksel-data: tasksel-data depends on tasksel; however: Package tasksel is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing tasksel-data (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Which is obviously a problem but not a show stopper. The log is at http://knight.monnsta.net/~mking/debootstrap.log. I saved the output from running the command, too, at http://knight.monnsta.net/~mking/debout.log but it appears to just be the non-verbose version of the log.
