In my previous email I included the output of the 'mount' command which showed that /dev was properly mounted. Again here it is with only the chroot part: $ mount | grep lenny32 /home on /mnt/lenny32/home type none (rw,bind) /tmp on /mnt/lenny32/tmp type none (rw,bind) /media/cdrom0 on /mnt/lenny32/media/cdrom0 type none (rw,bind) /dev on /mnt/lenny32/dev type none (rw,bind) Searching on internet I found the gentoo tutorial: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/howtos/index.xml?part=1&chap=2 Apparently on this tuturial both /dev AND /dev/pts are mounted: ... Code Listing 3.2: Mount virtual file systems # mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo32/dev # mount -o bind /dev/pts /mnt/gentoo32/dev/pts # mount -o bind /dev/shm /mnt/gentoo32/dev/shm ... Is there a chance that this turial is missing that ? -- Mathieu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
