Re: start-stop-daemon with chroot ?
Hello supermega,
do you also have a real name?

No, this cannot work. At least not if /bin/ls is the standard file from
the coreutils package.

Because /bin/ls is dynamically linked, but no linker or shared libraries
exist in the chroot. The error you see is described in execve(2):
ENOENT
The file filename or a script or ELF interpreter does not exist,
or a shared library needed for file or interpreter cannot be
found.
Running a statically linked program should work (can't try right now
because I don't have one installed).
