Section C.4 of the Debian GNU/Linux Installation Guide is based on notes
I wrote for performing a chroot installation of Debian under an existing
GNU/Linux system.
The current version of the manual has modified this work, but is still
clearly based on the documents I wrote originally in 1999, and further
ammended in 2002 and continue to maintain, with most recent
modifications in May, 2004:
http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Debian/install-under-chroot.html
