I got debootstrapped debian done with a few custom modifications; I also have that on my desktop on my computer.
How do I put the debian folder into the ext3 container file while its still on my computer?
The computer is Linux Mint 17.

With made-up names - make up ones to suit.
The container file:
sudo mount ext3.container /mnt/tmp
The debian folder:
cd ~/debian-folder
The contents of one into the other:
sudo cp -a * /mnt/tmp
(Must be done as root to preserve devices and other special files.)
go back home
cd
release the loop file:
sudo umount /mnt/tmp
