OK, this all looks good to me.

It's a very strange error.  It looks like something in these commands
deletes initramfs/fakeroot.log.  That file is missing from the list of
files in initramfs/ that you posted.

 + febootstrap-run initramfs -- touch /etc/fstab
 + echo nameserver 10.0.2.3
 + febootstrap-install initramfs resolv.conf.new /etc/resolv.conf 0644 root.root
 cp: cannot stat `initramfs/fakeroot.log': No such file or directory

I wonder if this is a LANG thing.  Can you try setting:

  export LANG=C

before compiling?  If that fixes it, please file a bug (against
febootstrap) since obviously it should be possible to compile with any
LANG setting.

Rich.
