I was not clear in this subject. The debootstrap from sid installed to sarge (apt-get install debootstrap/unstable) with fakechroot backported from sid to sarge (deb http://people.debian.org/~dexter fakechroot sarge) can be used with --variant=fakechroot option for sarge suite. $ dpkg -l libc6 fakechroot debootstrap | grep ^ii ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii fakechroot 2.2sarge1 gives a fake chroot environment ii debootstrap 0.3.1.5 Bootstrap a basic Debian system $ export PATH=/usr/sbin:/sbin:$PATH $ fakechroot fakeroot debootstrap --variant=fakechroot sarge /home/dexter/sarge [...] I: Base system installed successfully. $ fakechroot fakeroot chroot /home/dexter/sarge [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# _ I just work on fakechroot and deboostrap and the sid suite will be supported soon. -- .''`.
