OP is not using/installing ubuntu, he's installing debian and using fedora. I don't see where ubuntu fits. /vmlinuz and /initrd are links to files in /boot, which are installed by the kernel package (actually, the initrd is created, not installed). OP: You should chroot in /debian_chroot and run 'aptitude install linux-image-architecture'. If debootstrap didn't already, also install grub (or lilo if you prefer it). Edit fstab (don't forget about /proc) and exit the chroot. Then, if you have grub in the fedora system, run 'grub-install --root-directory=/debian_chroot /dev/device' and edit /debian_chroot/boot/grub/device.map if necessary. Re-enter the chroot and run update-grub. Then make the bios boot from that device, however you do it, and there you go. -- 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."
