As some of my interest was focused on finding out just how small a useful

One of the problems was everything seemed to be focused on a foreign
architecture &/or release &/or being run on a non-Debian machine.
My interest has been rekindled. I wish to understand debootstrap. To that
end I do a minimalist bootable Debian installation.
Summary:
Target will be another partition on my current machine.
I will use the same release and architecture of the current machine.
Hi Richard,
Because I wanted to run pure Debian and didn't like the customizations
the pre-built PINE A64+ images had I wrote a small script to build my
own (bootable) images.
https://salsa.debian.org/amp-guest/pine64/blob/master/pine64_buildimage
It could serve as inspiration (or base) to write your own script.
Kind regards,
Andrei
Thank you.
I've never used Salsa. I've found https://wiki.debian.org/Salsa/Doc .
