Ok, here's how to get the image I uploaded working in a basic sort of way.

From a root terminal:
Code:
qmount /home/user/MyDocs/maemo-sdk-v1_2.img.ext2 /floppy
mkdir /floppy/dev
mkdir /floppy/dev/pts
mkdir /floppy/dev/shm
mkdir /floppy/dev
mkdir /floppy/var/run/dbus
mkdir /floppy/var/lib/dbus
mkdir /floppy/var/run/pulse
cp /bin/busybox /floppy/bin
CHROOT=/floppy synchroot
qumount /floppy
Now try to qchroot into it.

I had to hack these two files to get the binaries to install (just remove all the bits where it tries to start the daemons):
/var/lib/dpkg/info/hal.postinst
/var/lib/dpkg/info/alarmd.postinst

I also had to do an ln -s command inside the chroot:
Code:
ln -s /bin/busybox /bin/su
EDIT: Just discovered that busybox is missing from the original SDK, I had to copy it in...
