debootstrap as an valuable instructioanal experience
Several months ago, when I was having problems with a very
customized install, I was pointed to debootstrap as an
appropriate tool. I finding that it will evidently give me not
only the fine control and minimal footprint desired, but it leads
me to explore areas of Debian that I know less about than I thought.
My question -- Does anyone know of a detailed (newbie oriented)
writeup on using debootstrap to install a bootable Debian to a
second partition of a drive already containing a complete default
install? All the writeups I've found assume various levels of
experience and leave out things that "everybody knows".
Fortunately the leave out different things so I think I am
getting a reasonably complete overview.
Comments? TIA
