In a chroot, you need to mount /dev/ and /proc and possibly /sys to
make certain things work. 

mount -o bind /dev /chroot/dev

etc. I'd recommend doing all three, verifiy that this solves it, and
then figure out the minimum set of mounts that are required to make it
work.

Phil, this plan just might work.
