I've described a chroot install at
http://twiki.iwethey.org/Main/DebianChrootInstall
This is now largely incorporated into the current Debian installation
manual as "".
Answering the proc issue in a reply on this thread, it's possible to
have multiple /proc mounts on a single system. From within the chroot:
mount -t proc proc /proc
(or simply 'mount /proc' if you've set up your /etc/fstab already).
I'm actually writing this from an ssh session on which I'm doing just
this ;-)
Peace.
