With Bash, when one needs to halt the current root filesystem, to pivot to a

Is there a way to accomplish the same within a Python script?
This is way off-topic for a Python tutor list. This is about learning
the Python programming language, not the intricate corners of (I assume)
Linux system administration.
I would imagine that it would be very, very difficult in Python, because
you would need somehow to end the *current* Python process and start up
a *new* Python process running from executables on the new file system,
without manual intervention.
I strongly suggest you take this question to the main Python list,
[email protected], which is also available as a news group
comp.lang.python, and show the bash code you are trying to duplicate.
There's no guarantee you'll get an answer there either, but it's more
likely than here.
Good luck!
