That's called a chroot. debootstrap (in testing/unstable, but I imagine you could build it from source on stable without too much trouble) can build one automatically for you, or you can grab ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/disks-i386/current/base2_2.tgz, untar it somewhere, and chroot into it.
