Because you intend yo use the network from withing the chroot (apt): programs inside the chroot should have no problem to use the network, but DNS queries will be done according to the resolv.conf inside the chroot.

If you need access to your hardware (ex. to reinstall grub) be sure to bind mount /sys /dev and /proc before chroot-ing.

Hope this helps,

I guess I still need a few more pieces!

I now have the problem that everything I have tried to do after chroot gives me a segmentation fault.

eg. chroot /dgwicks/root dpkg -i <something>.deb

Even just a plain chroot to my mounted directory gives me a segmentation fault!

I haven't found any way to get around this. Any suggestions??

Many TIA,
Dennis
