[offtopic] chroot + debconf (ncurses)

["Lluis" <xscript@gmx.net>]

Hi all,

I'm working on a group of scripts to master a bootable knoppix-based CD from
scratch (now it makes a basic CD, there's only the automated contruction of
miniroot missing), but I've met a little problem.

The case is that in one of the stages I install a series of packages on a
chroot, and the package cloop-module-x.x.x shows me a question via debconf.

The problem is that the debconf's ncurses dialog is not responsive to my
keystrokes, and it doesn't even resize to my full terminal... no
communication with the chrooted application.

The command I'm using is:
   # chroot $HDDIST aptitude -y install $BASE_INSTALL || error

I've also tried mounting the /proc on the chroot before that, but got no
good results...

Any clue about what's going wrong?

Thanks a lot!

PS: the rest of the operations that don't ask me via debconf work as
expected, even aptitude on a 
   # chroot $HDDIST aptitude || error
so it seems it's not ncurses fault, but something about debconf
