Install Debian from within another distro

You can use debootstrap from any distro or grml comes built with it,
just boot to grml, and your set.
Make your directory to mount.
Make your partitions
mount the partitions
mount --bind /dev dir/dev
mount--bind /proc dir/proc
debootstrap lenny dir
chroot dir /bin/bash (Ithink that is the right order)
install your kernel and grub, set root password with passwd root, set up
/etc/network/interfaces.
you can also grab speakup, and install that. Just make sure you change
the KERNELDIR from the uname -r to the actual directory that it points
to, because uname-r will return the GRML running kernel.
