http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-preparing.en.html#s-linux-upgrade That part of the isntall guide should be exactly what you need, minus the boot loader and such. (Though, I have no doubt you'll be able to figure it out on your own :-)) Short version: You should (and I say should because I never really bothered to see how it's really done) use debootstrap to install (this is, I think, what you were looking for in the first place, no?): http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/base-images-current/basedebs.tar -- Regards, Birzan George Cristian
