Schroot

The schroot boot method enters a schroot session using the connection opened by a previous SSH boot action. The following test actions are executed inside the schroot.

- boot:
    method: ssh
    connection: ssh
    prompts:
    - 'root@debian:~#'

- boot:
    method: schroot
    connection: ssh
    schroot: unstable
    prompts:
    - 'root@debian:~#'

schroot must be installed on the LAVA worker.

Device configuration

The ssh.jinja2 device-type template defines the schroot boot method. The following variables can be set in the device dictionary:

Variable	Default	Description
schroot		Command used to enter the schroot
schroot_name_list	['unstable', 'sid']	Names of the available schroots

The schroot block can be overridden with an empty block in the device dictionary to remove the schroot support.
