David:

Configuring lilo pretty much should be it.


I'm not familiar with the start-stop-daemon.REAL you refer to,
references?  I certainly don't use it in my own chroot install notes,
nor do I find it in the official Debian chroot install docs:

 http://twiki.iwethey.org/Main/DebianChrootInstall
 http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-preparing.en.html#s-linux-upgrade


If you've installed into a distinct partition, you'd simply add the
appropriate LILO configuration to select this partition as the system
root, and boot into it.

Note precautions if this is a remote install/reboot.


Peace.
