Hi Rob,
Right, doing the chroot from within qemu avoids the issue with polluting the target/. Thanks for the example.
The chroot approach still suffers from the need of initially having higher privileges. Personally, I still prefer the sysroot option and avoid that need but either way helps me.
Best regards
