Peter,
thanks and yes I did some further refreshing of my understanding of what
chroot does. I have to assume that the easy-debian app does not
modify any of the files in the parent OS/file system while easy-debian
is running. Is that correct?
One artifact of my having installed easy-debian is that, apparently,
the data base which I painstakingly created for the multilist app got
blown away somehow. Now I need to see if I can find where multilist
normally stores its databases to see if the database is still there or
moved somewhere else in the filesystem.
Unfortunately and unwisely I did not perform an IT backup prior to doing
the easy-debian install. This leads me to think that a great app to have
on the IT is one that saves a complete image, say,once a day, of the IT
storage contents to a network based storage service such as that
provided by Amazon Web Services with their Simple Storage Service (s3).

Qole,
I am still interested to understand how this app relates to the N800
OS. Does Debian run as an app, a VM, or something else?
You can find more information with the search term chroot
