----> If you set up your host for multi-arch, say, armhf then "apt-get
update" will bring in the Packages files for armhf, and in fact you
can accomplish the two stages with the single command:

# debootstrap --arch armhf chimaera /mnt http://deb.devuan.org/merged

That command will set up a chimaera filesystem under /mnt using armhf
software, and then it will chroot into that and perform the stage 2
within that filesystem (using armhf emulation). You may then later use
the same:

# chroot /mnt /bin/bash

----> Maybe I'm going crazy but this is absolutely impossible. You must

you are right. He used debootstrap. It does not work like this. He should
use qemu-debootstrap,that's on beowulf,not on chimaera.
