arch-chroot

linux

Enhanced `chroot` command to help in the Arch Linux installation process.

Examples (4)

Start an interactive shell (Bash, by default) in a new root directory

arch-chroot path/to/new_root

Specify the user (other than the current user) to run the shell as

arch-chroot -u user path/to/new_root

Run a custom command (instead of the default Bash) in the new root directory

arch-chroot path/to/new_root command command_arguments

Specify the shell, other than the default Bash (in this case, the `zsh` package should have been installed in the target system)

arch-chroot path/to/new_root zsh
