This is how I do it:
run as:
setupserver newname woody 192.168.blah.blah
replace apt-proxy:9999 with your nearest debian mirror
#!/bin/bash
set -e
set -x
set -v
SERVERNAME=$1
SERVERTYPE=$2
IPADDR=$3
TOPDIR=`pwd`/$1
debootstrap $2 $1 http://apt-proxy:9999/debian
echo "LANG=C" >> /etc/environment
cat > $TOPDIR/etc/apt/sources.list <<EOF
deb http://apt-proxy:9999/debian stable main
