 Posted: Sun Mar 30, 2014 10:39 am Post subject: [SOLVED] chroot within chroot |
 |
|
Hi,
From a live system I installed a Gentoo stage3 to a mount point and chroot'ed into it, emerged all the packages I needed then created a "target" subdir in which I started to emerge ROOT=targetdir packages:
| Code: |
ROOT=/target emerge -avD baselayout glibc busybox
ROOT=/target emerge -avD ncurses bash sysvinit openrc dropbear
|
Now if I chroot into targetdir:
| Code: | | chroot /target /bin/bash |
then I'm having issues with the console.
For instance, I can't use "more verylongtextfile" because it won't display the text page by page. It will behave mroe like "cat verylongtextfile".
Also and most important, I can't run the passwd command because it won't "read" the password. "passwd" asks for the user's password but doesn't wait for user input.
Surely I must be doing something wrong with the console when chroot'ing into it. Don't really know how to rbind /dev into a second chroot.
Help appreciated.

[EDIT] I wasn't mounting dev and sys correctly. The issue is solved. |

Funny, I wondered the very thing as I read your post. Don't you hate how that kind of silly forgetfulness can slip up on you? Sigh, I know the experience too well. |
