The words I were careful to use were "normal configuration".  A chroot
isn't "normal" and needs careful attention to get the details right
(such as a working /dev, /sys /dev/shm).  If you can't get this
configured correctly you may have more luck with a more featureful
container such as systemd-nspawn or KVM, where the guest actually
boots and can set itself up.
