[SOLVED] tty8 and X in chroot

chessmaster15 · 02-17-2014, 04:43 PM

Hello everyone,

I'm getting ready to try building GNOME 3.8 in a chroot enviroment and, I want to have my tty8 default to my chroot when I spawn it. While running X(once I mange to get through dependency hell). Even I'm unable to get X. I would like my chroot to spawn on tty8.

Thanks
