chroot for other distribution?

2002-05-04 Thread David Roundy
I know how to set up a chroot for a separate version of debian pretty easily using debootstrap. I'd like to also set up a chroot for redhat, so I can test-compile my software there, to see what kind of errors my users are getting. Does anyone have any hints as to how most easily to set this up?
