Bug#799341: x32 and failure to install chroot environment due to mount failure
Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.72
Severity: important
*****
I work with a free/open source project (http://www.cryptopp.com/). A
Debian maintainer reported a failure for X32. I'm trying to get a test
rig setup to duplicate the issue. I'm following Debian's X32Port wiki
page (https://wiki.debian.org/X32Port).

chroot: failed to run command 'mount': Exec format error

These issues may (or may not) be related. Michael Tokarev, who helped
with some qemu-system and qemu-user issues I was having, is familiar
with them.
799120, "execv and format error due to binfmt types [sic]",
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=799120)
784605, "binfmt masks: allow ELF_OSABI=0|3 on some architectures"
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=784605)
799120 has a different title; it was summarized for convenience with
the cause for this report.
*****
Based on the debootstrap command, I'm filing against debootstrap. But
I have a feeling it may not be correct. In fact, my last couple of
bugs in this area have been filed against the wrong package, so please
accept my apologies in advance.
I also tried qemu-debootstrap process with the following result, so I
don't believe its qemu or qemu-user issue:
# qemu-debootstrap --arch=x32 --keyring
/usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg --variant=buildd
--exclude=debfoster unstable debian-x32 http://ftp.debian.org/debian
E: Sorry, I don't know how to support arch

Description-en: Bootstrap a basic Debian system
debootstrap is used to create a Debian base system from scratch,
without requiring the availability of dpkg or apt. It does this by
downloading .deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them
into a directory which can eventually be chrooted into.
