Hmm, I tried the above only now and it fails with the following output I: automatically chosen mode: unshare I: chroot architecture amd64 is equal to the host's architecture I: automatically chosen format: tar I: using /tmp/mmdebstrap.ZYXCWIX0Ip as tempdir I: running special hook: tar-in chroot.tar / tar: ./dev/console: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/full: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/null: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/ptmx: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/random: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/tty: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/urandom: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: ./dev/zero: Cannot mknod: Operation not permitted tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors E: hookhelper failed: E: tar failed E: special hook failed with exit code 512 I: removing tempdir /tmp/mmdebstrap.ZYXCWIX0Ip... The file chroot.tar was created by mmdebstrap unstable chroot.tar And the following also works mmdebstrap --customize-hook='chroot "$1" /bin/bash' unstable /dev/null Any suggestions?
