Enhanced chroot command to help in the Arch Linux installation process. More information: <https://man.archlinux.org/man/arch-chroot.8>.

  • 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
