arch-chroot

Enhanced `chroot` command to help in the Arch Linux installation process.

More information.

Start an interactive shell (`bash`, by default) in a new root directory:

arch-chroot {path/to/new/root}

Specify the user (other than the current user) to run the shell as:

arch-chroot -u {user} {path/to/new/root}

Run a custom command (instead of the default `bash`) in the new root directory:

arch-chroot {path/to/new/root} {command} {command_arguments}

Specify the shell, other than the default `bash` (in this case, the `zsh` package should have been installed in the target system):

arch-chroot {path/to/new/root} {zsh}
