Re: chroot: can't execute command "/bin/bash": No such file or directory

As host I've installed ubuntu 14.04 (for amd64) and I've installed ubuntu 14.04 for arm-hf on the arm chromebook (the variant armel version does not exist for the 14.04).

yes,I've fixed the error by using qemu-debootstrap,but I tried to use debootstrap because qemu-debootstrap gives some errors when I update the chroot environment.

Just to be sure: is your Ubuntu (and your system) armhf?

If not, you'll need something like qemu-user to emulate armhf.

(I'd expect I different error message in case of trying to run a binary
for another architecture, but one never knows...)
