There are Debian packages also in the official Debian tree. > Of course it would be great if we could find a works-for-all solution, but I think a > howto-do-it-to-work-for-all documentation would be fine too ;).

A lot of people use different distributions for their vservers (i use Debian as root / Debian, Slackware, Redhat and in the future also Mandrake, SuSE and Gentoo in vservers). Unifying is for some people an issue, for others not. And if you don't care about unifying to save space, the README.Debian of the Debian packages is more than enough to get going there. The biggest problem is (just my 2 pence) getting started, how to run what distro in the vserver and understanding the concept and the limitations of vserver. Mostly i think we need a howto for each and every distribution in general (on the host, but mostly on the vserver side), because each distro has it's specialities. Besides, if i remember correctly, Klavs Klavsen was writing on a Gentoo howto for vserver.
