Howdy,
The third item in the todo list reports that debootstrap is
failing to work for local archives. This occurs because
dbootstrap invokes it with the path, rather than a URL. The
following patch should fix this. As I don't have a system on
which to test it at the moment, could someone else

No, it's the case, but you can grab the right kernel for your flavor

interesting in it.
