Create a chroot cauldron installation:
As root:
mkdir /mnt/chroot urpmi.addmedia --distrib --urpmi-root /mnt/chroot http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/mageia/distrib/cauldron/i586
urpmi --urpmi-root /mnt/chroot basesystem urpmi locales-en
ls /mnt/chroot
Expected output - bin@ boot/ dev/ etc/ home/ initrd/ lib@ media/ mnt/ opt/ proc/ root/ run/ sbin@ srv/ sys/ tmp/ usr/ var/
cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/chroot/etc/resolv.conf
Prompt appears - cp: overwrite ‘/mnt/chroot/etc/resolv.conf’? - answer y
mount -o bind /proc /mnt/chroot/proc
Add the following to the end of /etc/schroot/schroot.conf
[cauldron]
description=Mageia Cauldron i586
type=directory
directory=/mnt/chroot
users=root
groups=root
root-groups=root
then, still as root:
schroot -l
Expected output - chroot:cauldron
schroot -c cauldron urpmi iotop
schroot -c cauldron -p iotop
This displays iotop from the chroot.
To delete the chroot:
As root:
umount /mnt/chroot/proc rm -rf /mnt/chroot
