Ok. debootstrap does get beyond that point. Now it fails at: ,---- | I: Configuring base-files... | I: Configuring libblkid1... | I: Configuring e2fsprogs... | I: Configuring gzip... | I: Configuring dpkg... | I: Configuring dselect... | I: Configuring sysvinit-utils... | I: Configuring login... | I: Configuring lsb-base... | I: Configuring procps... | I: Configuring mount... | I: Configuring passwd... | I: Configuring initscripts... | I: Configuring base-files... | I: Configuring base-files... | W: Failure while configuring required packages. `---- chrooting into the dir, the error is that base-files postinst cannot find awk. mawk had indeed been configured earlier. So, while /etc/alternatives/awk exists, and points to mawk, there is no symlink /usr/bin/awk created. Is the latest dpkg buggy? manoj -- Most seminars have a happy ending.
