Hi Roger, The new "directory" type completely satisfies my need. Thanks very much indeed for this.

This sounds like a good idea. Thinking about this reminds me that I never did understand the distinction being made between "setup" and "exec" scripts. The man page schroot.conf does not enlighten me, and schroot ships with only one exec script (00check) that just logs info and looks basically like a debugging aid (it looks like it was derived from setup.d/00check, or vice-versa). Earlier in the thread, I mooted an option to toggle mounting: > >> > So: rather than a new chroot type, why not introduce a new option, say > >> > "auto-mount", for this? This seems to me completely unnecessary if "setup-options" is implemented. Regards, -Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
