Hey Aidan, What are you actually trying to do? chroot is a program that restricts the filesystem that is visible. It's usually used to start a shell in a different environment to your machine - for example, I use it to build a new voyage environment on a cf card, whilst still logged in to this workstation. It is also used ( erromeously!!! ) to improve security for certain server processes... like I said this doesn't really help!
I'm afraid I've never heard of fakechroot. Steve On Mon, 01 Oct 2007 15:01:32 +1200 Aidan Gauland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Greetings Fellow Penguins, > > Does anyone know how to use choot?
