Follow these steps outlined to install a new Debian Linux distribution on the raw image:
- Mount the root partition from the Network Block Device (NBD) device and ensure that it was mounted successfully:
root@kvm:~# mount /dev/nbd0p2 /mnt/ root@kvm:~# mount | grep mnt /dev/nbd0p2 on /mnt type ext4 (rw) root@kvm:~#
- Install the latest stable Debian distribution on the root partition mounted on /mnt from the specified public repository:
root@kvm:~# debootstrap --arch=amd64 --include="openssh-server vim" stable /mnt/ http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ ... I: Base system installed successfully. root@kvm:~#
- Ensure the root filesystem was created, by listing all the files at the mounted location:
root@kvm:~# ls -lah /mnt/ ...
