Talk:Install/Chroot

Debian compatible chroot

running the command which chroot within the env command to produce exact paths to chroot from whatever live environment you're in regardless of chroot being in $PATH or not is probably a good idea.

root # env -i HOME=/root TERM=$TERM $(which chroot) /mnt/funtoo bash -l

Chrooting from working system?

From 'Chroot into Funtoo' funtoo suggest invoking:

• cd /mnt/funtoo
• mount -t proc none proc
• mount --rbind /sys sys
• mount --rbind /dev dev

Which if invoked from 4.18.18-gentoo-r1 results in:

dreamon / # emerge

Failed to validate a sane '/dev'.

bash process substitution doesn't work; this may be an indication of a broken '/dev/fd'.

and `mount`:

both (mount+emerge err) was fixed by invoking chroot based on https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Chroot#Configuration

Probably should be included in the funtoo handbook?

EDIT: Command used for chroot was "sudo chroot /mnt/funtoo /bin/bash"

Same issue, and can be resolved via changing 'mount --rbind /sys sys' to 'mount --rbind /sys /mnt/funtoo/sys'. Same method apply with '/dev' directory.
