debootstrap failed, what now?

  • 772

I followed this tutorial:
http://www.bitstormweb.com/linux-administration/multiple-versions-of-php-mysql-and-apache-under-debian-linux.html
When in Step 3 - running debootstrap - my ssh connection got terminated for some reason.
i was able to reconnect but now i have a bootstrap directory in unknown state.

Any idea what i have to do now? Can i just remove it or is it somehow connected to the rest of the system?

Please Help!
Thanks :)

    You can do rm -rf /lenny-php53/* and try again without issues, the debootstrap command limits itself to the destination directory. But just re-running debootstrap without removing the leftovers from the latest run will probably work.
