elbe-chroot

NAME

elbe-chroot - Enter an Elbe root filesystem using chroot.

SYNOPSIS

elbe chroot [--skip-validation] [--buildtype=TYPE] [--target] <builddir> \
        ["command"]

DESCRIPTION

Enters buildenv of a previously built Elbe root filesystem using chroot. The command has to be run as root inside the Elbe build VM (created with elbe-init(1)).

OPTIONS

--skip-validation

Do not validate the source.xml file in <builddir> against the XML schema. (Not recommended.)

--buildtype=TYPE

Override the buildtype specified in the source.xml file.

--target

chroot into target rfs instead of buildenv

<builddir>

The build directory of the root filesystem to work with.

EXAMPLES

  • Work with the root filesystem built in /root/testrfs_arm

    # elbe chroot /root/testrfs_arm "ls -lh /"
    work on existing rfs
    running cmd +chroot /root/testrfs_arm/chroot debconf-set-selections < /root/testrfs_arm/chroot/var/cache/elbe/preseed.txt+
