It's ususally not a problem doing a chroot debian on debian using debootstrap. The issues that you need to be aware of are to mount /proc and any needed fs in the chroot, and that listening network sockets can collide (you can't run sshd booth in the normal / and in the chroot unless you use separet port numbers). > Part of what I need to set up soonish, is CNC abilities.

Plumbing is sooo much easier to solder. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.user/52401 talks about linuxcnc on debian wheezy, perhaps it can be of help.
