Well, I tried running debootstrap, but I don't know how to point it somewhere for a ports installation. I assume it should work, I just need the right URL to give it? I tried all of: sudo debootstrap sid /z sudo debootstrap sid /z http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/ sudo debootstrap sid /z http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-sparc64 sudo debootstrap sid /z http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/dists sudo debootstrap sid /z http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/dists/sid And it always fails the same way: I: Target architecture can be executed I: Checking Release signature I: Valid Release signature (key id 126C0D24BD8A2942CC7DF8AC7638D0442B90D010) E: Invalid Release file, no entry for main/binary-sparc64/Packages Anyone have a debootstrap recipie for sprac64? Thanks. - Chris
