Hi,

BTW, I use this type of chroot solution to deploy updates which only
target other Linux OS versions (e.g. RHEL6) on servers which run Debian
10 and Ubuntu LTS.

This will generally work, but some updates which rely on a specific
kernel version (e.g. because they ship use "out-of-tree" kernel modules)
may still fail.  In some cases if the "out-of-tree" kernel modules have
since been "upstreamed" and included in the kernel you are running on
the server, you can instead just use modprobe to load these kernel
modules (e.g. "dell_rbu") from outside the chroot, before running the
update.

I use the Debian "schroot" tool (which takes care of bind-mounting /proc
/dev /sys /home etc. - schroot is also availabe for Redhat I believe),
and pre-generated root archives from https://images.linuxcontainers.org/

HTH,

Tim.
