Bug#813124: debootstrap calling mknod with --mode option, not supported in busybox



Package: debootstrap
Version: 1.0.77
Severity: grave
Tags: d-i patch

The fix for #812811 is broken and shows a lack of adequate
testing. Using the --mode=$mode argument for mknod is fine on a normal
system, but in d-i we're using busybox mknod and it doesn't support
the long option --mode at all. We need to switch to using -m instead,
as suggested by Robie in the initial report for #812811.

This is causing immediate failure for all attempted installations
using d-i daily builds. Fix coming in a few minutes.
