Hi Luca, it looks like your target setup is not quite correct. Inz's blog 
entry is quite new but the information for a chinook target is incorrect.

Here's a target setup that works for me:

sb-conf st maemo4-arm -c cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-arm -d 
cputransp:perl:debian-etch -t qemu-arm-0.8.2-sb2

The most notable differences are that you should use debian-etch devkit (not 
debian or debian-sarge) and that the qemu version is wrong.

Also make sure you've got the latest version of scratchbox and the devkits:

scratchbox-core 		1.0.8
scratchbox-libs 		1.0.8
scratchbox-devkit-cputransp 	1.0.3
scratchbox-devkit-debian 	1.0.9
scratchbox-devkit-doctools 	1.0.7
scratchbox-devkit-maemo3 	1.0.1
scratchbox-devkit-perl 		1.0.4

The maemo3 devkit is named very badly, but it provides the maemo3-tools that 
has some additional tools you also might also want to use in chinook (maemo4).

I don't know if this fixes your specific problem, but I hope so :-)

Cheers,
  Juha
