You went to /root, it is out of aufs. Your aufs is /root/jukebox_cddb/aufs, isn't it? Your newly created file is saved in /root. I am afraid you don't understand aufs or mount. Probably, you need to try LiveCD, for example SLAX. Basically, it doesn't save the created files in your hard drive. Also, I recommend you to read the manual of chroot(8).
