DESCRIPTION

installs a chroot(8) to be used as a lessdisks root filesystem.

the debootstrap(8) program is used to install a Debian base system. once a base system is installed, the lessdisks-terminal package is installed into the chroot, followed by any programs selected as part of configuring the lessdisks-terminal package.
