[rpmbased-dist-chroot.git] / README
1 Introduction
2 ------------
3 rpmbased-dist-chroot is a script that takes a directory full of RPMs (helps if
4 they're the same distribution, I suggest using an official CD for the
5 distribution you want to chroot) and installs packages in to the chroot for
6 you.
