Your world file should do that for the Gentoo stuff, with limitations. It assumes you have nothing on the system that was created outside of normal portage/emerge. It would probably duplicate the latest kernel tree but wouldn't build it, and wouldn't copy old kernels that aren't in portage if you s

Meino, I think as your question was posed, yes, copying the world file is enough to get the applications into the chroot built and working. Your command looks reasonable but I'll let someone who runs Gentoo these days make suggestions for improvement on that. (I no longer run Gentoo much. Just i
