(none) user.info dbootsrap[76]: Failure trying to run: chroot /target dpkg --force-depends --install /var/cache/apt/archives/debconf_1.0.32_all.deb

Searched HOW-to's and FAQ and now have No idea.

Hda =
/hda1 10 mb bootable
/hba2 200mb ext2
/hda3 500mb 
/hda4 500mb
/hda5 200mb linux swap



thanks in advance if you anyone can help.

Am now stuffed - should I go back and install potato and try to reinstall kernel from there?
