I played some more with this evening. I got quite a lot further, but it still didn't make it through a successful rootstrap run: It hung at the 'sync' step in debootstrap most of the times, but occaisionally I had it hung already some time earlier during the package unpack/install/configure. I've been using the latest user-mode-linus and rootstrap 3.22. Later this week I'll try with rootstrap 3.23. Let's see whether that makes a difference. I wish there was a way to get somore debugging going...
