Changing debootstrap is basically changing the packages in base and can lead to a fair amount of pain and we're trying not to do it at this point. So it may be better to use apt-install or something. It would really be best at this point if things don't break if dmidecode is not installed. Once the support is in the archive, we can add it to the netinst CD. -- see shy jo
