What parameters are you passing to debootstrap? It should be something like: debootstrap etch /debian_chroot http://somemirror/debian If that's correct, you should make sure that you're running it as root and the chroot binary is in PATH ('which chroot'). If that doesn't help, please copy the exact error you're receiving. > -- Gabriel Parrondo GNU/Linux User #404138 GnuPG Public Key ID: BED7BF43 JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The only difference between theory and practice is that, in theory, there's no difference between theory and practice." -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
