Thanks for your input.  No, basically those two commands is all I did,
when I decided against it.  So it seems there's no harm in rm -rf'ing the
whole directory.

This chroot business is very new to me.  The reason I'm investigating it
is because it seems to be the only way to have flash player,
openoffice.org and other packages that are not yet available for AMD64s.

Can somebody please suggest some up to date references on this?  I've
found several procedures by googling, but all are relatively old and some
have serious drawbacks, like inconveniences upgrading libraries in the
main system.


Cheers,
