I do not think it would be wise for us to attempt at guessing where the MBR will reside. As such, mount --bind will suffice. We already create /proc and /sys prior to chroot. /dev certainly wouldn't hurt. > I believe there are two issues here.

Considering that this thread has moved towards device nodes in chroot, I fail to see how device nodes at boot correlates (though the OP didn't specify chroot/boot). Unless someone can provide reason to not use mount --bind, we can consider the chroot phase sorted. The boot phase is what really needs our attention at this point, so I thank you for bringing it up. -- Archaic Want control, education, and security from your operating system?
