I've got a system where users run in a chroot environment, which contains a full working copy of the OS.

Within that environement I've got findtools-locate installed.

If you run it it creates a 10 byte updatedb database file and that's it, no error.

I'm assuming it's because the hard drives don't show up in mount when you're in chroot. Anyone know of a way to fix this?
