That will work great, after running "mount" to make sure that nothing is mounted in the chroot. ...Although from what you said you haven't mounted anything in the chroot yet. One of the first times I set up a chroot (and mounted /home in it) and later deleted it, I did so without unmounting the home partition. Everything in /home disappeared; luckily I had just backed it all up. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
