# get a root shell, (on ?ubuntu use this)
sudo su -

# install deboostrap (if you do not already have it)
apt-get install debootstrap

# make a directory for the 32 bit system
mkdir /sid-i386

# create a flag file in so 'ls /' will show where you are
touch /sid-i386/This_is_sid-i386

# in the next line s/us/tw/ or whatever you nearest repository is called
debootstrap --arch=i386 sid /sid-i386 http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/

# watch it download the whole system ...

# modify /etc/fstab (if your /home is symlink, use the absolute path)
echo "proc /sid-i386/proc proc defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
echo "/home /sid-i386/home bind defaults,bind 0 0" >> /etc/fstab

# OPTIONAL:
# if it is necessary to use RS232 from this chroot than maybe
# the device directory should be mounted.  Only useful
# if the command 'make flash-bootloader' is going to be used
# and need access to /dev/ttyUSBx
echo "/dev  /sid-i386/dev  bind defaults,bind 0 0" >> /etc/fstab

# mount the above
mount /sid-i386/proc
mount /sid-i386/home

# OPTIONAL: if the device directory was included above
mount /sid-i386/dev

# OPTIONAL: add your favorite configs to sid's root e.g.
cp -p /root/.joverc /sid-i386/root/
cp -p /root/.bash* /sid-i386/root/

# chroot into sid
chroot /sid-i386 su -

# install necessary packages
apt-get update
apt-get install gcc g++ gawk flex bison make patch wget
apt-get install libgd2-noxpm-dev
apt-get install --no-install-recommends libqt4-dev
apt-get install libncurses5-dev

# OPTIONAL: add your favorite programs e.g. jove editor
apt-get --no-install-recommends jove

# exit from the sid-i386 chroot
exit

# set up your username and group for sid
ME=myusername
grep "^${ME}:' /etc/passwd >> /sid-i386/etc/passwd
grep "^${ME}:' /etc/shadow >> /sid-i386/etc/shadow
ME=mygroup  # If different
grep "^${ME}:' /etc/group >> /sid-i386/etc/group
grep "^${ME}:' /etc/gshadow >> /sid-i386/etc/gshadow

# exit from sudo root shell
exit

# now back to your normal login account

# login as yourself under sid
sudo chroot /sid-i386 su -l myusername

# cd to your source
cd wikipediardware
make clean
make

# watch it build ...
