Thank you Ricardo, That did the trick.However, now i wander whether would be appropriate to bring up this inconsistency between the two tools. For instance the Debian Reference document section 8.6.35.1 states:
A chroot Debian environment can easily be created by the debootstrap command in Sarge. For post-Sarge distributions, you may use cdebootstrap command instead with appropriate option. For example, to create a Sid chroot on /sid-root while having fast Internet access:
However, on Etch cdebootstrap seems to fail while debootstrap works fine.if you think that this is important enough to be brought up then whom shall i address?
