hi, my goal is to build an armel rootfs without the need of super user privileges.
using fakeroot, doing a debootstrap or multistrap is possible without the need of becoming root. using fakeroot i can even create device nodes and such without a problem but at some point i will have to chroot into the environment and execute some foreign binaries. (for example to execute dpkg --configure -a for a multistrap) for that i was using qemu-arm-static $ cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static $ROOTDIR/usr/bin and using the normal $ sudo chroot $ROOTDIR /bin/sh is working great but for that i have to have super user rights. so fakechroot comes to the rescue. in debootstrap with the same architecture as the host doing something like this will works: $ fakeroot fakechroot chroot $ROOTDIR_AMD64 /bin/sh but this does not work if $ROOTDIR contains an armel debootstrap/multistrap while i'm on amd64/i386. if i try i get (i already have qemu-arm-static copied over): $ fakeroot fakechroot chroot $ROOTDIR /bin/sh /lib/ld-linux.so.3: No such file or directory if i create a symbolic link from /lib/ld-linux.so.3 to /lib32/ld-linux.so.2 i get: $ fakeroot fakechroot chroot $ROOTDIR /bin/sh Unable to load interpreter and if i use the ld-linux.so.3 from the armel libc6 package i get: $ fakeroot fakechroot chroot $ROOTDIR /bin/sh ERROR: ld.so: object 'libfakechroot.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. as you can see i do not posses enough knowledge to solve that issue myself so hopefully someone here is able to hint how this problem can be resolved. thank you in advance cheers josch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-embedded-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
