chroot command simply sets different root directory for a command - thus that command: a) sees different root directory b) cannot access anything outside that directory (aka chroot jail)Example: 1. Imagine you just mounted: mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/hd 2. Executing: sudo chroot /mnt/hd /bin/bash will execute bash from inside /mnt/hd (running /mnt/hd/bin/bash) as if you would have booted from there What Ben, most likely, wants to guide you through is running lilo as if booted from the disk mounted on /mnt/hd - thus updating the Lilo config. I will not guess further because I forgot most things about Lilo long time ago. The Linuxes I use boot using Grub for long time and/or boot using UEFI directly these days. Hope it makes sense. Tomas
Makes sense, but isn't working. I'm logged in as root, so I didn't use sudo, but otherwise, I ran it the same:
chroot /mnt/hd /bin/bash and got : chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
