Uhm, this will also work and save space (remove the .e2z file though):

$ mv m68k-base.e2z debian.img.gz
$ gzip -d debian.img.gz

Note that this needs “long filenames”; if MiNT doesn’t support them, use

$ mv m68k-base.e2z debian.gz
$ gzip -d debian.gz
$ mv debian debian.img

Same from me. Thanks for persevering!

Do note that the resulting ext2fs filesystem image from
m68k-base.e2z is only 384 MiB in size (and a revision-0,
no-features image, so you can even mount it in MiNT until
after the first time Linux has mounted it, because Linux
auto-converts it to a never ext2fs revision – I made the
filesystem image in MirBSD/i386 for this reason…). You may
want to run resize2fs on it now (should work onlinely), or
even better, create a new, larger, more modern filesystem
on a different partition (mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/hdXX) then
copy everything over.

*coughs* I… may… have pre-installed it (and hacked it so
that, on the next apt-get install or dpkg-reconfigure, it
will create a fresh host uuid)… only thing you most defi‐
nitely should do (before doing a dist-upgrade; because the
new versions of popcon do this crazy cpu-intensive thingy
by default now) is:

	sudo sh -c 'echo ENCRYPT=no >>/etc/popularity-contest.conf'
