 +=head1 NAME
 +
 +  create-chroot
 +
 +=head1 SYNOPSIS
 +
 +  create-chroot [-g VG] [-f] [-L size] distname
 +
 + -g  name of Volume group if several on this system
 + -f force removal of existing volume group
 + -L size of the logical volume. defaults to 3GB.
 +
 + distname name of the distribution you want to bootstrap
 +
 +=head1 DESCRIPTION
 +
 +B<create-chroot> is a small shell script for creating LVM based chroot
 +ready for use with schroot. If the distribution already exists, the
 +existing logical volume will be removed. It checks if a volumegroup
 +named like the dist you want to install is already on the system. If
 +there isn't, then it will create a logical volume, make a filesystem and
 +bootstrap the selected system on it. It then copies the files
 +C</etc/hosts> and C</etc/sudoers> into it.
 +
 +After setting it up, make sure you have the chroot added correctly to
 +C</etc/schroot/schroot.conf>.
