Re: [trinity-devel] Chroot

Can newer releases of a distro be run in a chroot from within an older release? What problems will occur?

I'm running Slackware 12.2, mostly because that was the last release supporting KDE 3.5.10. I run my Trinity builds in a chroot.

I would like to start Trinity build testing for the most recent Slackware release.

I can run newer releases in a virtual machine, but I find virtual machines much slower than the chroot.

Thanks.

When I boot my VM, I leave it sitting at console login I then sftp into my VM using konqueror for file management and ssh with konsole for building etc. It is much faster.

I then login and startx when I am ready to test. ;-)
