 |
|
Trying to get Gentoo embedded up and running. For now I have not started doing any thing specific, just trying to get a basic foundation down.
So for my first step I create an empty test dir, in this case /carcomp. From here I can emerge the basic tools into my test environment.
| Code: |
ROOT="/carcomp" emerge -av uclibc baselayout-lite vim e2fsprogs bash bzip2 tar sysvinit module-init-tools util-linux net-tools dhcpcd
|
After all that I then try to chroot into my new environment and get an error.
| Code: |
deadspac # chroot /carcomp /bin/bash
chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
|
Does any one know what I am missing. Permissions look good and I can execute bash by hand with /carcomp/bin/bash. Am I missing some bootstrapping steps? |

busybox - a lite replacement for bash and many other tools would be a better choice instead of bash. it seems to be independent from system libraries.
http://www.busybox.net/
try chroot without /bin/bash parameter. maybe it'll help
or install busybox with make-symlinks use flag.

| You probably built busybox w/o static linking. From your base system, do a 'ldd /bin/bash'. Do the libraries that show up exist in /lib of your chroot environment? When I had this problem, I just did a 'cp -a /lib $chroot/lib'. |
