    Chroot Problem

    I am trying to remaster KNOPPIX by following this wiki page:
    http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/Knoppix_Remastering_Howto.

    I copied the /KNOPPIX directory to my local hard drive using this command:
    cp -Rp /KNOPPIX/* /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/KNOPPIX/

    BTW: This hard drive is FAT32 is that why when I made a KNOPPIX directory it appeared as knoppix. Can I even do this from FAT32?

    Then I tried to chroot into that directory by:
    chroot /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/knoppix/ I get:
    chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory

    So, I tried running /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/knoppix/bin/bash and it works fine.

    Here is what I did:
    root@2[knoppix-cd]# chroot knoppix/
    chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
    root@2[knoppix-cd]# ls knoppix/bin/bash
    knoppix/bin/bash
    root@2[knoppix-cd]# chroot /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/knoppix/
    chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
    root@2[knoppix-cd]# ls /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/knoppix/bin/bash
    /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/knoppix/bin/bash
    root@2[knoppix-cd]# cd knoppix/
    root@2[knoppix]# chroot ./
    chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory
    root@2[knoppix]# ./bin/bash
    root@2[knoppix]#


    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Check the permissions to see if it's executable.

    Your problem is due to the use of different letter cases as follows:

    You did:

    cp -Rp /KNOPPIX/* /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/KNOPPIX/
    Then
    chroot /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/knoppix/

    But, it should be:

    chroot /mnt/sda1/knoppix-cd/KNOPPIX/
