Hi all, I have successfully installed a Debian system in the past but this one is a bit different. I am installing a minimal system on what will be a router. libc, kernel, ipchains, ssh, dhcp-relay, and that's about it. The harddrive I will be installing on is currently /dev/hdb on a working potato system. I want to mount /dev/hdb1 on /mnt and do the installation directly using the current Linux box. This is because the router doesn't have a video card or a floppy drive for that matter. Is it as easy as just unpacking the basexxx.tgz file on the mountpoint and then doing dchroot apt-get install to install the various packages. Is there anything else I need to do? Is ln /proc /mnt/proc safe as some setup programs might need it in the chrooted environment?
