Sure. Just as long as you have a boot disk or something to enable yo to boot into it. You could go directly onto this from lilo, but it would be tricky to set up. > And how do daemons behave? As normal. If something outside the chroot is listening on a port they want to use (say you have apache both and out of the chroot), though, whichever starts last will fail on startup with a message like 'address already in use'. You can go another step and use User-Mode Linux, which will run another instance of the Linux kernel, and all your programs in your chroot under that. Then they can have their own IPs or whatever, as well as being unable to steal ports or whatever from process outside. > Are there daemons running on the chroot Debian? If you install them. It's just like a normal Debian install in there. debootstrap just creates the Debian base system; you use apt or dselect or such to install whatever else you need inside it. -- Rob Weir <rweir@ertius.org> | mlspam@ertius.org | http://www.ertius.org/ GPG keys: 1024D/1E73B7CD, 4096R/3ABDE5EC | Do I look like I want a CC?
