I just tested the first method on that page (Multistrap) and I suspect 
that the information need an update, because Lenny source don't exists 
anymore and Grip is now a dead end according to the EmDebian front page.
Generally, EmDebian is hard to follow because there is a lot of outdated 
information on the site and it's very difficult to sort between the 
obsolete/unusable and actual/tested information. I have read a lot of 
pages on the site and I am still lost on how is the best/recommended way 
to start a new cross embedded project based on Debian Jessie

A possible way to improve the situation could be to define a popular use 
case, for example creating a complete armhf image on a amd64 host mixing 
standard package from the distribution and local package from 
cross-building, and to maintain a tested tutorial on how to do this from 
a clean system.
