Decided to play around with #chroot again. But this time I beefed it up considerably. Basically built a mini-Debian stable install on top of #Devuan with debootstrap and started installing some internet-facing utilities on it.
Got to the point where I'm running chrooted firefox, which works pretty transparently, except I get no sound (yet). What could I try next?
Really neat how much you reduce in size given some of the host filesystem re-use (mounts, etc). Graphical environment and all, yet the whole chroot is just around 1.8 G in size.
@linuxtldr I have previously been critical (not a fan of posts you have to click a link to find out what they're about or articles with poor or no introductions explaining the significance of the content--so often the how to do something before the why you'd want to). Only fair to acknowledge this exemplary work! 👏
