NAME

       cdebootstrap - Bootstrap a Debian system

SYNOPSIS

       cdebootstrap [OPTION]... [ORIGIN/]CODENAME TARGET [MIRROR]

DESCRIPTION

       cdebootstrap  builds  a  basic  Debian system of CODENAME (e.g. jessie, stretch, sid) from
       ORIGIN (e.g Debian, Ubuntu) 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=CONFIGDIR
              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.

       -f, --flavour=FLAVOUR
              Select the flavour to use (see FLAVOURS below).

       -k, --keyring=KEYRING
              Use given keyring.  Relative filename are looked up  in  /usr/local/share/keyrings,
              /usr/share/keyrings and CONFIGDIR.

       -H, --helperdir=DIR
              Set the helper directory.

       --include=A,B,C
              Install extra packages.

       -q, --quiet
              Be quiet.  Only warnings and errors are shown.

       --suite-config

       -v, --verbose
              Be verbose.  All command output is shown.

       -h, --help
              Display this help and exit.

       --version
              Output version information and exit.
