Yes this looks like what I need. If only it followed doc I'd be 
flying:

I boot via nfs to the "full" debain arm fs image provided by TS.

I mount the onboard fs:
 mount -t yaffs2 /dev/mtdblock/1 /mnt/mtd

now in principal I should be able to install a pkg to target system 
with:
dpkg -i --root=/mnt/mtd perl

some more work is needed since dpkg is not configured there. If I try 
it on debian directly, it fails with a unspecified error. If I rerun 
even with "insanelyverbose" debugging I dont get a jot more info 
about the problem.

:root# dpkg --debug=2000 -i perl
dpkg: error processing perl (--install):
 cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:
 perl

hmm, more like --debug=insanelyterse

looks like I need to manually rebuild dpkg with debugging turned ON.

seems odd this is not the default on an fs image proposed for 
development use.

:?
