+  <para>To chroot, you will also need a Linux Kernel-2.6.32 or greater (having been compiled with GCC-4.1.2 or greater). The reason for the kernel version requirement is that eglibc is built to generate the library for the smallest version of the Linux kernel expected to be supported.</para>
+
+  <para>To check your kernel version, run <command>cat /proc/version</command> - if it does not say that you are running a 2.6.32 or later Linux kernel, compiled with GCC 4.1.2 or later, you cannot chroot.</para>
