Hello all:

I installed ../emulators/suse_base and _x11 on my Ibook with NetBSD 2.0
from sometime in September.

>> When i now try to do changeroot:
root@ibook:/# chroot /emul/linux /bin/bash

bash: ls: command not found

I have no name!@ibook:/# uname -a

Linux ibook 2.4.18 #0 Wed Feb 20 20:00:02 CET 2002 macppc unknown

So what did I miss? Anyone tried something similar?
The "I have no name!" account seems quite strange.

The ultimate goal is to install open-office (linuxppc) binary  e.g. as
from yellowdog in a changerooted linux environment so that the install-
script can see the linux libraries it expectes to find in /lib.

Could this work that way?
