Difference between squashfs-lzma-tools, squashfs-lzma-tools4 and squashfs-tools
First of all build the chroot system:
mkdir /tmp/nfsroot && cd /tmp/nfsroot
- debootstrap lenny /tmp/nfsroot/ http://cdn.debian.net/debian
+ debootstrap squeeze /tmp/nfsroot/ http://cdn.debian.net/debian
tar zcf base.tgz ./
Then check out where your NFSROOT is located:
