Do you mean --variant=fakechroot ? I can't reproduce your "chroot: not found" issue, though it fails in other ways... What are the exact commands you used? I used this: fakechroot fakeroot /usr/sbin/debootstrap --variant=fakechroot jessie jessie http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian The order of fakechroot and fakeroot supposedly matters, according to the fakechroot manpage. > yields the following: > [output omitted] > I: Installing core packages... > W: Failure trying to run: chroot /home/user/debootstrap-test dpkg > --force-depends --install /var/cache/apt/archives/base-passwd_3.5.37_amd64.deb > W: See /home/user/debootstrap-test/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for details Mine fails with: I: Configuring systemd-sysv...
