I'm trying to install debian from a KNOPPIX cd, using debootstrap and chroot.
I'm just curious. If debootstrap goes south for whatever reason ... (when trying to install sarge it couldn't find one of the files e.g.) (another time I ran out of memory (with no swap mounted) and it crapped out) ... is there anyway to restart this bugger where you left off ? What if everything is downloaded and some stuff is configured and other stuff is not ... Can you basically just run dpkg to root out and configure stuff that needs configuring ? Then just edit your fstab, install lilo, and that's it ? cheers, e p.s. An unrelated quetion: when using apt-cache show or aptitude is there a way to figure out which release (woody, sarge, etc) a version is associated with ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
