It's working now. These are the libraries I ended up needing:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root      1170812 Feb 15 00:52 libc.so.6
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       248144 Feb 15 00:47 libncurses.so.5
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        12372 Feb 15 00:47 libnss_dns.so.2
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        34144 Feb 15 00:47 libnss_files.so.2
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       146320 Feb 15 00:47 libreadline.so.4

plus /etc services, /etc/nsswitch.conf, and the ftp client program.
libc.so.6 had to be copied since the version in the boot floppies
couldn't resolve getlogin.

So, that leaves me ready to ftp in a copy of the base system .tgz
file. Has anyone built such a thing for woody? I couldn't find one.
Alternately, (or in addition) if anyone has built a version of
dbootstrap with debug symbols I'll try it out.
