What's the chroagh recover method? #90

Open wytcld opened 9 years ago

wytcld commented 9 years ago

What are the steps to update/fix a system that's started segfaulting when trying to start X? ("enter-chroot" still works for a shell session, but startxfce4 always segfaults now.) I've got a fresh download of chroagh, and half-recall there's a simple way to fix this with a refresh of the installation ... but memory stops short on me and I'm not finding the recipe here.

Thanks, Whit

Used a stock crouton to refresh the system, which basically worked once I'd symlinked /run/crouton/var/crouton/chroots to /usr/local/chroots. Then /run/crouton/var/crouton got removed, so after a machine restart I've been doing "mkdir -p /run/crouton/var/crouton" and "mount mmcblk0p13 /run/crouton/var/crouton", after which enter-chroot and startxfce4 both work normally.
