JRO, group; A longer example describing a much better, general purpose, au/chroot setup.
The example was done while running a LiveCD Linux distribution. Details in the example. If choosing to use the same distribution: http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html The version used in the Example was the LiveDVD flashed to removable media. The LiveCD version should work for the example also. Your machine can be either a Linux or Windows box - Knoppix does not start storage resources (except for Linux swap if found). If your system can't not boot from USB devices, there is a "bootonly" CD image available at the Knoppix site. In addition to the plastic disk to burn the Live* image to, you will want to have: Removable flash media to install Knoppix onto, or at least for it to use as a persistent storage. The LiveCD will install to 4Gbyte media with room left over. The LiveDVD will install to 8Gbyte media with room left over. The au/chroot setup and all related files are written to a separate removable media. The example uses a 16Gbyte device but anything 4Gbyte or larger should do. Even a box full collection of 1Gbyte sticks and a hub. Once you read/work through the example, you will see how to make use of that box full of "too small" devices you have sitting around. _ _ _ _ And this time, it is only gzip'd __once__! Mike
