I wish to install Kubuntu 18.04 from within the terminal. I need to install the full KDE desktop (normal Kubuntu install).



However, for the installation process itself, I need to perform all the steps in the terminal. The machine is currently running Arch Linux. In arch I have installed debootstrap and reviewed the man page for debootstrap.



Now I need to know the steps for installing Kubuntu using debootstrap. I'm comfortable installing Arch using pacstrap, and I read the the process is similar using debootstrap but AskUbuntu does not currently feature a complete answer describing this process (neither for Ubuntu or Kubuntu).



The most relevant answers are:
Installing Ubuntu manually from command line (without installer)
Install ubuntu with the command line



From the first link I learned about debootstrap. However, none of those answers are up to the usual AskUbuntu standards of completeness. The present question might be a good opportunity to provide a complete and thorough answer to installing a full desktop system using debootstrap. I do not believe this question is a duplicate.
