Recommended debootsrap tutorials

I was introduced to Linux when Squeeze had become "stable".
I thought default installs were not only too obese but didn't have some 
of my desired packages. That led to educational (& reasonably fruitful) 
experiments with preseeding.

As some of my interest was focused on finding out just how small a 
useful Debian system could be, I was pointed towards debootstrap. I 
didn't have needed background at that time. I've continued to pursue the 
literature sporadically.

One of the problems was everything seemed to be focused on a foreign 
architecture &/or release &/or being run on a non-Debian machine.

My interest has been rekindled. I wish to understand debootstrap. To 
that end I do a minimalist bootable Debian installation.

Summary:
Target will be another partition on my current machine.
I will use the same release and architecture of the current machine.

In addition to relevant man pages I refer to:

Any others I should be reading?
