| Hi all,
|
| I've installed my current system by debootstrap'ing in a new
| partition/lvm logical volume. You only need to run an x86_64 kernel (of
| course with 32-bit emulation enabled):
|
| # apt-get install kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8
|
| Reboot and boot the new kernel, then run
|
| # debootstrap --arch x86_64 {sarge,sid} $mountpoint $mirror
|
| You'll need to copy some files over (like
| /etc/{fstab,hostname,hosts,...}, whichever you need.
|
| Good luck,
|
| David

Hi David,
Thanks for that. I have a lot of studying to do. New concepts here:
debootstrap, partition/lvm logical volume etc. I'll be back with more
questions I'm sure.
Thanks again,
Jonathan
