Debian Sid on chroot
August 11, 2006Today i sucessfully installed Debian Sid on chroot in my Debian Sarge machine 馃檪
Here is the procedeure i followed from http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tips.en.html#s-chroot
See what i do:
main # cd / ; mkdir /sid-root main # debootstrap sid /sid-root http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ ... watch it download the whole system main # echo "proc-sid /sid-root/proc proc none 0 0" >> /etc/fstab main # mount proc-sid /sid-root/proc -t proc main # cp /etc/hosts /sid-root/etc/hosts main # chroot /sid-root /bin/bash chroot # cd /dev; /sbin/MAKEDEV generic ; cd - chroot # apt-setup # set-up /etc/apt/sources.list chroot # vi /etc/apt/sources.list # point the source to unstable
It give’s me a total debian Sid system with only base packages.
main # echo "8:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/chroot /sid-root " "/sbin/getty 38400 tty8" >> /etc/inittab main # init q # reload init
It makes the login system in tty8 (no need to chroot everytime)
main # cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /sid-root/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 main # chroot /sid-root # or use chroot console chroot # cd /dev; /sbin/MAKEDEV generic ; cd - chroot # apt-get install gdm gnome x-window-system chroot # vi /etc/gdm/gdm.conf # do s/vt7/vt9/ in [servers] section chroot # /etc/init.d/gdm start
Now, my system is ready to work with Debian Sid with Graphical manager.
