Making new installations
I have an installed Debian system, and am interested in making some
more. I'm interested in both new installs and chroots. I realize
these may have somewhat different solutions.
As for making a new install, I see two options: I can run the debian
installer or deboostrap.
Are there other options?
Both the options I know want to pull in debs, but I already have them
on my system. Is there some way to get it to use them? As far as I
can tell, the usual format for a debian archive is different from that
of apt's cache that has the debs on my system.
For setting up a chroot, using debootstrap is the only option I know.
Other ideas?
