just a small script to make a chroot for building clean packages
it should work on 5.8 and 5.9
If you think of ways to improve it add them below.

#!/bin/bash

mount -o loop $ISO $MNT
#enter the name of the new chroot dir
echo "enter a name for the chroot dir"

#make the chroot dir
mkdir -p $CHROOT
#change to the chroot dir

You rock!
Added improvements to script: cache the fonts, run ldconfig and set the timezone so you don't get "timezone is not set" message if date it called.

I do some other tweaks also so my terminal will let me know it's a chroot so I don't get confused.  I setup my slaptget-rc, update slapt-get, install requiredbuilder or anything I normally use.  I even plop a couple templates in there. Then I make a lzma out of the whole thing.  So it's a delete and extract...  get to work.
