I have the current bootable Debian working fine under qole's script after apt-get install xserver-xephyr wmctrl .. modified his latest debian script since it wants to use his image file and not directory path.. but it all runs fine and I have IceWM launching using the C compiled host2win app
here
.
Seems to work just fine... I don't copy over the passwd/group files, and I don't mount over my user directory.. I'm not sure why Qole did.. the user account UID/GID seem the same on both so permissions should be fine.. but the mpd user and the /home/user/music folder is required by the mpd app.. so if I leave them alone I have experienced no issues.. and even started mpd in IceWM chrooted and listened to music beautifully...
I prefer it this way to Qole's image because I can opt to boot to it if I want.. or for when I don't want to put up with my wireless problems I just boot into Diablo and Chroot in.. Absolutely love it.
ETA: Hah.. I had my device in Offline Mode in Maemo chrooted to IceWM.. went to maemo and /etc/init.d/btcond stop, and in IceWM /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart .. and I got bluetooth switched from maemo to the debian side lol. Not extremely useful.. but still cool; have bluetooth in offline mode with wireless still totally disabled. (course any battery saved would be killed by the chroot environment.. hah.)
