Chicken Playground

Chicken playground is chrooted environment to test and play with Chicken and its extensions. Currently there's one playground, which is a Debian Etch for i386 systems. The environment contains the usual basic tools for GNU/Linux systems and the following ones which can be useful for playing with Chicken:

• darcs
• subversion
• tools required to build Chicken (autotools, cmake, C and C++ compilers etc) lots of libraries needed to build most of eggs
• Chicken 2.613 and salmonella

Both CMake and Chicken are installed under /usr/local. Symlinks under /usr/bin point to the actual files.

How to use it

1. Extract the archive

 tar xzvf debian-etch-i386-chroot-1.0.tar.bz2

2. Copy a working resolv.conf to the chroot environment

 cp /etc/resolv.conf ./debian-etch-i386-chroot-1.0/etc

3. As root, chroot to the newly created directory

 chroot debian-etch-i386-chroot-1.0 /bin/bash

4. Mount /proc in the chroot

 mount -t proc proc /proc

You're done! Now you can use the chroot environment as a regular GNU/Linux system.
