Installing 3rd-party kernel modules (e.g the nVidia or ATI graphics drivers) may cause problems, since the kernel you're running may not be the only you'd be booting the chrooted environment with. Other than that, nothing comes to mind, and the nVidia drivers at least can also be told to use a specific kernel instead of the running one. Simon.
