Hi again, I solved the problem yesterday. Somehow it depends on the
debootstrap-version. When I am using the new version coming with etch
(0.3.3.2), the problem appears as posted before. Using the old sarge
version (0.2.45) works perfect. Unfortunately the old version doesnt
bring the ability to install etch with debootstrap. Thats the reason why
I updated my version. Maybe it is a bug in the new debootstrap-version!?

Whatever, you can install an etch-domU using cdebootstrap (pay attention
to the C at the beginning)

Have fun

Cheers,

Artur
