Lxroot - a program similar to Proot but implemented via Linux user namespaces

[Parke]

Hello, Proot devs and users,

Fyi... I have written a program called Lxroot that is similar to Proot, except that Lxroot uses Linux user namespaces, whereas Proot uses ptrace.

Like Proot, Lxroot allows non-root users to perform chroot and bind mounts.  Lxroot lacks Proot’s binfmt_misc capability.  However, it might be possible to run Proot inside Lxroot.

Questions and comments welcome.

Cheers,

Parke
