Please don't close bugs just because they refer to a version of Ubuntu
that's no longer supported. I'm reopening it on principle.
The current documentation refers to MAKEDEV, which was in fact part of
the original reporter's request; this was added in hardy:
revno: 389.1.2447
committer: fjp
timestamp: Sun 2007-10-21 13:22:07 +0000
message:
Updates to appendix on chroot installs:
- add disclaimer: the appendix only covers the basic steps needed to install
a system
- add a section with some basic instructions about creating device files
- add an 'initrd=' line to the example lilo.conf
Thanks to Igor Stirbu for noting the issue with missing device files
and grub installation.
I think this is actually probably adequate to close the bug. I know
that often bind-mounting is more suitable, but it's not absolutely
necessary and running MAKEDEV is sufficient to get something basic going
with minimal fuss. Phillip, perhaps the point about recommending mount
--bind should be a separate bug, and this one should be closed, but as
Fix Released rather than as Invalid?
** Changed in: installation-guide (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => Triaged
