the process of creating an image means that we have to build a complete chroot. complete means that we need to run the maintainer scripts. since the maintainer scripts (often) include running binaries within the chroot, this means the following: your host system must be able to execute your targets architecture binaries natively. 'natively' means either in true hardware, such as i386 on amd64, or i386 on an i386 system with an amd64 kernel, or virtually by running qemu (or any aquivalent computer-architecture virtualiziation software). -- Address: Daniel Baumann, Donnerbuehlweg 3, CH-3012 Bern Email: daniel.baum...@progress-technologies.net Internet: http://people.progress-technologies.net/~daniel.baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
