Comments/Problems:
Install the base system gives error:
The debootstrap program exited with an error (return value 1).
and next error:
The base system installation into /target/ failed.
/var/log/messages contains the following:
--- clip ---
Errors were encountered while processing:
apt-utils
umount: /target/dev/pts: No such file or directory
umount: /target/dev/shm: No such file or directory
umount: /target/proc/bus/usb: Invalid argument
--- clip ---
Now, when skipping the 'install the base system' and trying to install
boot loader, the installer runs the 'install the base system' again.
