No, it just means extracting the files to disk, but not running any
install tasks like maintainer scripts or triggers etc. The maintainer
scripts are needed to make the install work properly. It sounds to me
like you have used qemu-user-static but you only did the first stage
(debootstrap --foreign) of a two-stage debootstrap. I probably should
have explained it better before, but qemu-user-static is for when you
want to do a single-stage debootstrap solely on amd64. The two-stage
debootstrap (debootstrap --foreign, debootstrap --second-stage) is for
when you are not using qemu-user-static but want to do the second stage
on the ARM device itself. IIRC debootstrap will setup the install to do
the right thing on the first boot of the ARM device.
