Example configuration:

16.

[General]
arch=armel
directory=/opt/multistrap/
# same as --tidy-up option if set to true
cleanup=true
# same as --no-auth option if set to true
# keyring packages listed in each bootstrap will
# still be installed.
noauth=false
# extract all downloaded archives (default is true)
unpack=true
# whether to add the /suite to be explicit about where apt
# needs to look for packages. Default is false.
explicitsuite=false
# aptsources is a list of sections to be used
# the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/multistrap.sources.list
# of the target. Order is not important
aptsources=Debian
# the bootstrap option determines which repository
# is used to calculate the list of Priority: required packages
# and which packages go into the rootfs.
# The order of sections is not important.
bootstrap=Debian

17.

[Debian]
packages=
source=http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian
keyring=debian-archive-keyring
suite=lenny

18.

This will result in a completely normal debootstrap of Debian lenny from the specified mirror, for armel in '/opt/multistrap/'. (This configuration is retained in the package as F</usr/share/multistrap/lenny.conf>)

19.

Specify a package to extend the multistrap to include that package and all dependencies of that package.

20.

Specify more repositories for the bootstrap by adding new sections. Section names need to be listed in the bootstrap general option for the packages to be included in the bootstrap.

21.

Specify which repositories will be available to the final system at boot by listing the section names in the aptsources general option, e.g. to exclude some internal sources or when using a local mirror when building the rootfs.

22.

Section names are case-insensitive.

23.

All dependencies are resolved only by apt, using all bootstrap repositories, to use only the most recent and most suitable dependencies. Note that multistrap turns off Install-Recommends so if the multistrap needs a package that is only a Recommended dependency, the recommended package needs to be specified in the packages line explicitly. See C<Explicit suite specification> for more information on getting specific packages from specific suites.

24.

'Architecture' and 'directory' can be overridden on the command line. Some other general options also have command line options.
