#chroot — Public Fediverse posts

Wrote a silly script to showcase how to use unshare + chroot/pivot_root in order to manually enter a #linux #chroot / #container without needing #root privileges:

I rarely see anyone mention how this can be done without needing to reach for #bubblewrap or systemd-nspawn, and I think it's important to see how you can leverage the primitives that drive container technology.

The script can be simplified, but not without sacrificing correctness. I hope the comments help.

Any #BSD 'heads out there with lots of #Linux experience?

What is your take on #chroot #jails versus #Docker #containers / #pods ?

Talk to me like the last time I ran #FreeBSD in production was twenty years ago.
