I created sarge filesystem (for arm) with debootstrap on a x86 machine.

A quick investigation showed that I don't have passwd/group/shadow files.
For me it worked ok, using
debootstrap --foreign etc etc etc
then booting that with kernel option init=/bin/sh to run
/debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage.
debootstrap doesn't seem to have the "--second-stage" option:
# debootstrap --second-stage
I: usage: [OPTION]... <suite> <target> [<mirror> [<script>]]
I: Try `debootstrap --help' for more information.
E: You must specify a suite and a target.
# debootstrap --help
Usage: debootstrap [OPTION]... <suite> <target> [<mirror> [<script>]]
Bootstrap Debian base system.
--arch set the target architecture (use if no dpkg)
[ --arch powerpc ]
--download-only download packages, but don't perform
installation
--print-debs print the packages to be installed, and exit
--unpack-tarball acquire .debs from a tarball instead of http
--boot-floppies used for internal purposes by boot-floppies
--debian-installer used for internal purposes by debian-installer
--help display this help and exit
--include=A,B,C adds specified names to the list of base
packages
--exclude=A,B,C removes specified packages from the list
--verbose don't turn off the output of wget
--components=A,B,C use packages from the listed components of the
archive
--variant=X use variant X of the bootstrap scripts
(currently supported variants: buildd)
