I fixed this and:
$ ls -la /mnt/debinst/bin
...
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 941252 Apr 22 06:22 bash
but still:
# LANG=C.UTF8 chroot /mnt/debinst /mnt/debinst/bin/bash
chroot: failed to run command `/mnt/debinst/bin/bash':
No such file or directory
Am I misunderstanding the chroot syntax? It seems the object is to run
/mnt/debinst/bin/bash with its root being /mnt/debinst/.
I did this:
# LANG=C.UTF8 chroot /mnt/debinst
chroot: failed to run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
$ ls /bin | grep bash
bash
rbash
$ ls /mnt/debinst/bin | grep bash
bash
