Johannes, I see that base-passwd and base-files use chown to set up some groups etc. That would however not work with non-root chrootless, so we'd have to use either root chrootless, or non-root fakeroot? Also, can we tell mmdebstrap to use the normal chroot instead of fakechroot? chroot() is not a privileged operation in the Hurd. Samuel
