I'm now finding one problem that threatens to invalidate the whole idea. Today I |
| 8 |
returned after a few days away and ran an update, after mounting the Atom's file |
| 9 |
systems to /mnt/atom/target on the i5 and chrooting into /mnt/atom. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
12 packages needed to be updated; four of those were installed to the chroot and |
| 12 |
the other eight to the target. They should all have gone to the target. |
| 13 |

Has anyone here tried working this way? I can't tell whether the problem is |
| 15 |
woolly thinking on my part or problems in portage. I did think portage had all |
| 16 |
the tools it needs to maintain another system mounted on a target directory |
| 17 |
under the file-system root. |
