NAME

cdebootstrap - Bootstrap a Debian system

SYNOPSIS

cdebootstrap [OPTION]... SUITE TARGET [MIRROR]

DESCRIPTION

cdebootstrap builds a basic Debian system of SUITE (e.g. etch, lenny, sid) into TARGET using the source specified in MIRROR. It supports http://, ftp://, file:// and ssh:// URL and defaults to http://ftp.debian.org/debian. The ssh:// scheme uses cat on the remote host to access the files. You have to setup a master connection and configure ssh to use it or use a key for authentication. No user interaction is possible. The complete log is saved as /var/log/bootstrap.log in the new system.

Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

--allow-unauthenticated
Ignore if packages can't be authenticated. This ignores the unavailability of Release.gpg, missing keyrings, broken signatures and missing gpgv executable.
-a, --arch=ARCH
Set the target architecture.
-c, --configdir=DIR
Set the config directory.
--debug
Enable debug output.
-d, --download-only
Download packages, but don't perform installation.
--exclude=A,B,C
Drop packages from the installation list. This only works if the package is pulled in explicitely, either via priority or explicit definition in the config. It won't exclude packages which are pulled in via dependencies.
--foreign
Use second stage installer. This does the unpack phase of the bootstraping only. The second stage installer will be available as /sbin/cdebootstrap-foreign and /sbin/init.

Select the flavour to use (see FLAVOURS below).
