Thanks. But let me think a bit before applying this...

See below for my comment.

bind mount has come to good idea for newer kernels.

dchroot is good idea but going too deep on explainiing paricular
application is not for debian-reference unless that is essential thing.

Question is having manual steps are more educational or pointing people
to dchroot and asking peolpe to read its script to get in-depth process.

prompt is really preference thing.   pbuilder or some package (or recent
default) surprized me by having similar fancy staff by default.

This is to make terminal8 running sid while other 1-6 (console) are
stable.

I have not done this recently.  I only use sid for building package
mostly.

Maybe, I need to test all these on sarge.
