     This is exactly my point.


     I did this only once, ~10 years ago and this is how I bootstrapped 
my first install of Linux on an embedded Powerpc. I have a doubt though 
since the method I gave in my previous mail implies to have a shell 
interpreter available. Maybe I rather told the kernel to run 
'debootstrap --second-stage' right away. There isn't a bootloader on the 
boards I use, and I had to hardcode the init path in the kernel.

     I am not sure this is an issue at this early stage, since 
debootstrap (and the shell, if possible) can run from the console.


     HTH :)
