It now gets stuck at the point of retrieving packages, it complains about getting the packages.bz2 file and then exits.
I did get further when I tried using the version on the CD when I changed to using lenny, however as lenny is far behind with certain packages I really want to use either thesting or unstable (possibly I would prefer testing as that might be a bit more stable).

I attach the config file I am using, I don't give any extra options to grml-debootstrap. The error message isn't very descriptive, I get the message about it creating generic devices in /dev (something like that) then I get an error stating the script and that MAKEDEV cannot be found (sorry I don't have the exact message in front of me, it was of the form: /bin/chroot-script: xxx: MAKEDEV: command be found Where xxx was a number which escapes me).
Ok thanks. I've just uploaded grml-debootstrap 0.33 to the grml-testing repository which should address your problem (thanks to Ulrich Dangel for taking care of this issue).
Please let us know if you still encounter problems.
