## Name
chroot - run a shell with a different filesystem root
## Synopsis
```**sh
# chroot
```
## Description
This program uses the [`chroot`(2)](../man2/chroot.md) syscall to switch into a
different filesystem root and spawn a shell inside it.
It will not work unless there is a `/bin/Shell` available inside the new root.
## Examples
```sh
# chroot /var/chroot
# pwd
/
```
