Description Jeremy Huddleston (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-14 00:37:11 UTC
I had a bit of trouble setting up the chroot, so I think it might be nice to provide a sample /etc/fstab section for the chroot:

# 32bit chroot
/mnt/raid0/linux32      /mnt/gentoo32                   auto    bind            0 0
/dev                    /mnt/gentoo32/dev               auto    bind            0 0
/dev/pts                /mnt/gentoo32/dev/pts           auto    bind            0 0
/proc                   /mnt/gentoo32/proc              auto    bind            0 0
/proc/bus/usb           /mnt/gentoo32/proc/bus/usb      auto    bind            0 0
/sys                    /mnt/gentoo32/sys               auto    bind            0 0
/tmp                    /mnt/gentoo32/tmp               auto    bind            0 0
/home                   /mnt/gentoo32/home              auto    bind            0 0

Grr, we have to fix docs first to be dtd compliant...
Comment 2 Danny van Dyk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-16 11:47:54 UTC
jhuebel: I don't think we need this in the documentation... Whoever wants to create a chroot shall get their infos from the forums or from google.
(This is amd64 documentation !)
Comment 3 Jeremy Huddleston (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-16 12:17:11 UTC
well, i think it'd be nice as there are a few caevets that even I missed (forgetting /proc/bus/usb and /dev/pts for instance)... and the chroot documentation is already started in those technotes, so might as well expand it a little...
Comment 4 Jason Huebel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-11 14:59:06 UTC
I have plans to overhaul the technotes soon anyway. We'll add a little more detail to the chroot section. But I don't want that section to turn into a full-blown installation guide.
Comment 5 Travis Tilley (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-22 18:03:43 UTC
i think we could expand upon and fix http://dev.gentoo.org/~lv/setup-gentoo-chroot
then the entirety of the guide would just be a howto on using that script :)
Comment 6 Jason Huebel (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-25 20:07:15 UTC
Closing.  The compatibility guide is only a brief guide.  There are no plans to expand it beyond what it is at the moment.
