Re: [opensuse] chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
Hi Joe, hi all,
yes, I'm running chroot from the directory I want to chroot...
# pwd
/disk2/mnt/sources
# chroot /disk2/mnt/sources
chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory

2. nothing special... just mounted the ISO image and wanted to chroot to where it is mounted...
Did you cd first to the directory you are chrooting to? IIANM, you should cd /disk2/mnt/sources chroot /disk2/mnt/sources exit to leave the chroot.

Mi understanding is that trying to run a command that is not local to the chroot environment would fail. But the chroot command itself should run. Look, the info page says: | Exit status: | | 1 if `chroot' itself fails | 126 if COMMAND is found but cannot be invoked | 127 if COMMAND cannot be found | the exit status of COMMAND otherwise nimrodel:~ # chroot /mnt ; echo $? chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory 127 nimrodel:~ # So, it is trying to execute a command on entry, although I have specified none. It must be bash itself. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

If you run chroot with only the new root directory name, it's kind of like "su," in that it runs an interactive shell. Or tries to. In this case, there was no shell to run (or one of its dynamic dependencies could not be resolved), so an error results. It's all in the man page.
