By default debootstrap creates systems with /usr being merged, leading to issues like the xfsdump issue we saw in #85.

It's possible to generate custom basefiles with debootstrap, but by default we should invoke debootstrap with the --no-merged-usr option, otherwise we might have different ISO layouts, depending on whether we use appropriate basefiles (as on jenkins.grml.org) vs. locally.

grml#85, also dpkg -S ... and
further commands break with /usr being merged.
