# Using a chroot
-If you want to run layout tests and you're not running Lucid, you'll get errors due to version differences in libfreetype. To work around this, you can use a chroot.
+If you want to run layout tests and you're not running Lucid, you'll get errors
+due to version differences in libfreetype. To work around this, you can use a
+chroot.
+
+## Basic Instructions
+
+* Run `build/install-chroot.sh`. On the prompts, choose to install a 64-bit
+ Lucid chroot and activate all your secondary mount points.
+* sudo edit `/etc/schroot/mount-lucid64bit` and uncomment `/run` and
+ `/run/shm`. Verify that your mount points are correct and uncommented: for
+ example, if you have a second hard drive at `/src`, you should have an entry
+ like `/src /src none rw,bind 0 0`.
+* Enter your chroot as root with `sudo schroot -c lucid64`.
+ Run `build /install-build-deps.sh`, then exit the rooted chroot.
+* Delete your out/ directory if you had a previous non-chrooted build.
+* To enter your chroot as normal user, run `schroot -c lucid64`.
+* Now run `build/gyp_chromium`, compile and run DumpRenderTree within chroot.
