That is not really a solution, because all it need to be root again is a |
| 19 |
simple exit. And chroot-root can break out of the chroot without problem. |

And you still need to be root to enter the chroot so you must always type in |
| 22 |
your root password to start a simple app, even if you drop root inside the |
| 23 |
chroot. So this is nothing more then a really fragile hack, to me at last. |
