"At startup, programs expect to find scratch space, configuration files, 
device nodes and shared libraries at certain preset locations. For a chrooted 
program to successfully start, the chroot directory must be populated with a 
minimum set of these files. This can make chroot difficult to use as a general 
sandboxing mechanism." -- Form the wikipedia entry for chroot

When you do a chroot, it tried to run a shell for you from the chroot'ed 
directory. But since its empty , it throws an error.
