Debootstrap is used to create a Debian base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of dpkg or apt. It does this by downloading .deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory which can eventually be chrooted into. It's especially useful if you need to work on debian-like systems without having to install them over our beloved Slackware ;-) As we do not have dpkg, remember to always pass an architecture to debootstrap using the --arch switch.
