Installing sarge with basedebs.tar
I am in the process of switching from RedHat to Debian and I installed
woody in a chrooted environment environment using debootstrap and the
basedebs.tar base system as advertised in section 3. of the woody
Installation Guide. I searched the "testing" repository (which I
understand is the soon-to-be official "sarge" release..) and I could not
find the basedbs.tar file. I also noticed that the section "Installing
Debian GNU/linux from a UNIX/linux System" in the "testing" Installation
Guide does not exist.
Does this mean that the "basedebs" installation procedure will become
obsolete with the new release or is it something that is generally added
to Debian at the last minute?
