Ah. Alright. I'm running it. Now you'll be able to see all of the permutations and silly things I'm doing! :0)

It's failing after executing /bin/bash, during bash startup.
This makes sense as when I boot in to that partition, it stops and drops me to an ash cli.
The
chroot command itself completed successfully, as you can see. Please
try mounting procfs on /proc inside the chroot location and see if
this makes any difference.
I don't believe I know how to do what you wish me to do. Is this it: mount -t proc /dev/hda3/proc /mnt/hda3 ?
Also, please provide the details about the hardware you are using.
Toshiba laptop with 3.06 gHz intel p4 hyperthreading 80 gb hd 1024 mb ram kernel 2.6.17(.7) from debian sid repository. 3 partitions, /boot ext2 on hda1, / xfs on hda3 and / jfs on hda2. The xfs is clean (I made sure of that, what with the recent bug). If you need more, just ask.
