Me again: Just in case someone else is trying this, here's what I did. Maybe someone can help me go the next step...
1. From within my Debian partition, se the procedure outlined in "Preparing" on this page, but with this package as the source for the right script, and only copying the "hasty" scripts.
2. Run the following from within my Debian partition:
After that's done, we've got a working root fs. But there are problems, as detailed above...

It keeps nagging about missing locales...
The architehture naming has been the only thing why i have not tried to run this before, but now because of ubuntu-mobile packages and the fact that it is faster than debian, i wanted to try it.
Btw, for now i only use ubuntu in chroot, because deblets arm(el) packages cannot be installed without having to do something big.

Yes, it nags about locales, but I'm used to this. Debian does this after a fresh debootstrap too. But when I try to "dpkg-reconfigure locales" like in Debian, it doesn't work (locale config app doesn't start; fails silently).

locale config app starts, but there is no locales to generate in /usr/share/locale
Can it be so simple that just copy /usr/share/locale from somewhere?

Well, the weird thing is that it claims that "locales" is installed, and "apt-get install --reinstall locales" doesn't help. So where are the locales that are supposedly installed?

"locales" package is installed, but there is still no locale files.
There are package called "locales-all" in debian armel repositories, witch installs all those locale files, that i think should be provided by the package locales.
EDIT: i tried to copy some locale files from my ubuntu-box, still does not work...

.. did you people remember to add universe in apt? And don't add deblet packages directly, dpkg-buildpackage them.

Bah. Managed to hose my Ubuntu partition. You were right, the Debian repositories will try to download arm packages (instead of armel), which will not work. I discovered this as it decided to "upgrade" my dpkg, which broke everything. Sigh.

Maybe they expect us to do that for some of the ubuntu packages, too, hence all the deb-src lines.

EDIT: Just to head off anybody who says that "armel" is too new a standard, I have to disagree and say that it is older than Mojo's port. Also, it is the standard name for the architecture in Lenny, the current (frozen) testing distro...
