Having too little time to spend struggling with a debootstrap cross install, I built a devuan installation USB key, first with unetbootin and then with a dd copy. Results the same in either case, so I'll just describe my experience with the second.
I did # dd if=devuan-jessie-i386-alpha4-netboot.iso of=/dev/sda bs=4M; sync I booted to the key and I choose expert install. When it said to insert a key with my WiFi card driver, I did, but it did not seem to see or query the key. So had to hook up an ethernet cable. When I got to this point with ethernet, the installer failed to automatically configure the network. Had to do it manually by entering my host's IP address. Network configuration now succeeded. Now there is a download of files needed for a base system. It checked the mirror, it downloaded release files, and after some time the progress bar reached 100%. Then I get "Bad archive mirror". I tried FTP, I tried a more distant mirror, etc, but result was the same. Why does the error appear after it seems to have already successfully downloaded the files?
