I made a wiki page for my chroot method. It works with any version of Johnx's Debian.

I can get Debian apps to run with two steps:
  1. ssh to root
  2. run debian script with application name as parameter (eg "debian epiphany")

I want to get this down to one step, that is, run a script that gains root, runs the chroot script, and launches the app. Then I can make Hildon menu items for Debian apps.

When I try something like this:
Code:
ssh root@localhost 'debian epiphany'
... I get a "cannot open display" error. It seems the mount --bind commands don't stick properly this way. Any ideas?
