Release v2.2 ============ * This release brings some critical fixes so an upgrade is highly recommended, especially on x86_64 and Ubuntu. * PRoot is now a lot faster: the speed-up can be up to 50% depending on the kind of application. * PRoot can now mount/bind files anywhere in the guest rootfs, even if the mount point has no parent directory (and/or can't be created). With previous versions of PRoot, that would created kinda black hole in the filesystem hierarchy that might bug some programs like "cpio" or "rpm". For example, with the previous version of PRoot:: $ proot -b /etc/motd:/black/holes/and/revelations proot warning: can't create the guest path (binding) ... proot info: started $ find /black find: `/black: No such file or directory $ cat /black/holes/and/revelations Time has come to make things right -- Matthew Bellamy And now:: $ proot -b /etc/motd:/black/holes/and/revelations proot info: started $ find /black /black /black/holes /black/holes/and /black/holes/and/revelations $ cat /black/holes/and/revelations Time has come to make things right -- Matthew Bellamy * "/run" was added to the list of recommended bindings (-B/-Q). * SH4 and ARM architectures are now officially supported.
