[14:28] <genii> Bah. sudo debootstrap --arch=armhf --variant=minbase --foreign trusty /mnt/ubuntu http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu results in: E: Couldn't download dists/trusty/main/binary-armhf/Packages ... If I want debootstrap a minimal armhf from an amd64 box, is there something special I should be doing? This syntax I'm using works under Debian
[14:36] <genii> Ah, needed to omit the URL
[14:36] <ogra_> you shoudl eb using qemu-debootstrap
[14:36] <ogra_> not debootstrap
[14:37] <ogra_> and omit --foreign
[14:41] <genii> ogra_: Interestingly it seems to have completed without complaint now, after I removed the ubuntu.com URL. I should use qemu-debootstrap even if this is to be used on a native ARM device?
[14:43] <ogra_> yes
[14:43] <ogra_> it just does the right thing
[14:43] <ogra_> and you dont need all the foreign mess
[14:44] <genii> ogra_: OK, thanks!
[14:44] <ogra_> (you will get a properly usable rootfs directly without having to do the second steps on device later=
[14:47] <genii> Re-doing it now with qemu-debootstrap
[14:48] <genii> Complained about keyring this time but seems to be continuing
[15:00] <genii> Success! Now to see if this stupid tablet will actually boot it.
[17:28] <markieta> Anyone know where I can get an updated Uboot for the Applied Micro X-Gene?
