I was pursuing this sequence: log in as root set up bind-mount of /proc in SI chroot to SI running /bin/login log in as vsx0 in chroot su to root mount /dev/shm and /dev/pts drop back to vsx0 run_tests The above referenced test fails, with the failure Chris notes, so apparently it's able to dig deeper and find out that root was the original login. If I started the sequence by logging in as vsx0 on the original vt, would it work okay? Or do we need to pursue another approach for "logging in", namely providing a telnetd or sshd inside the chroot? Mats -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subject of "unsubscribe".
