I have two systems on my machine. One is Ubuntu and the other one is Linux from scratch (LFS) which I built it my self.
Ubuntu has X window system installed but LFS has no windowing system whatsoever.
I chroot
from LFS (/dev/sda3) to Ubuntu (/dev/sda1) root partition with following commands:
mkdir /mnt/sda1
mount -v /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
mount -v --bind /dev /mnt/sda1/dev
mount -vt devpts devpts /mnt/sda1/dev/pts -o gid=5,mode=620
mount -vt proc proc /mnt/sda1/proc
mount -vt sysfs sysfs /mnt/sda1/sys
mount -vt tmpfs tmpfs /mnt/sda1/run
chroot /dev/sda1
Then after chrooting
, I ran xinit
. X window system started but apparently without detecting mouse.
Currently I'm stuck in X window system and I cannot do anything. When I press ctrl+alt+F1 to F6
or ctrl+alt+backspace
nothing happens. To complicate matters further, before I chroot
, I was compiling something on another console tty
and I don't want to lose that compilation progress with pushing hardware restart button.
Is there a way out of this situation.
