Thanks for the source.  Excellent.

My question is this.

debootstrap --arch i386 sarge /vserver/vm_base/ 
http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian
Specfically the location it is looking for the source to install on the 
VM disk (http://ftp2.de.debian.org/debian).  Is there a way to make the 
install look at the source files I already have on my local disk?  Do I 
need to do something to prep them locally to install properly?
Thanks.
