+ Debootstrap is a tool which will install a Debian base system into
+ a subdirectory of another, already installed system. It doesn't
+ require an installation CD, just access to a Debian repository. It
+ can also be installed and run from another operating system, so,
+ for instance, you can use debootstrap to install Debian onto an
+ unused partition from a running Gentoo system. It can also be used
+ to create a rootfs for a machine of a different architecture, which
+ is known as "cross-debootstrapping".
