DESCRIPTION

	 rinse is a simple script which is designed to be able to install
	a minimal working installation of an RPM-based distribution into
	a directory.

	 The tool is analogous to the standard Debian GNU/Linux debootstrap
	utility.

USAGE

	 To use this script you will need to be root.  This is required
	to mount /proc, run chroot, and more.

	 Basic usage is as simple as:

	  rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --directory /tmp/test

	 This will download the required RPM files and unpack them into
	a minimal installation of Fedora Core 6.

	 To see which RPM files would be downloaded, without actually
	performing an installation or downloading anything, then you
	may run the following:

	  rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --print-uris

TODO

	 Short of supporting more distributions or architectures there aren't
	really any outstanding issues.
