It will be far too slow as a chroot.
Use it as a standalone.
XFCE is too slow. LXDE is great.

having just trashed a Easy Debian install because I wanted to go full Squeeze I can definitely feel the appeal of your work :P (easy debian as a stock OS is next to useless by now due to the obsolete software and inability to reliably install new software due to dependencies spread across lenny, squeeze and old-school sid -- Nice proof of concept though!))
Anyway, will definitely be doing this, so huge thanks
Think I'm going the Arch route, may be more work but it's what I normally use

I have successfully extracted / partition from ubuntu maverick omap image. I have used the scripts on the first page to mount it and enter the chroot, but after starting the gnome-desktop, phone just reboots...

I foud out that my ubuntu maverick filesystem was broken, so I downloaded latest natty omap4 image, extracted the filesystem from disk image, checked with e2fsck and uploaded to n900. Phone now reboots even on simple comands like "echo" executed in chroot environment. Any advice?

I was able to start unity2d after disabling watchdog:
(not working with flasher for windows)
But when I was trying to close the chrooted Xephyr, phone initiated a correct reboot cycle and I was not able to start unity again. (Maybe related to multiboot. I guess it could enabled the watchdog. Will verify later, when I get microusb cable again.)
Code:
./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-omap-wd ./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-ext-wd ./flasher-3.5 --enable-rd-mode
