[NMLUG] chroot -- can somebody help me out?

Maybe I just don't have the system configured correctly, or maybe I'm 
taking the whole wrong approach....

I'd like to: run Firefox in a chroot jail

How?

man chroot --> look at the info page

info coreutils chroot --> not much more help.

Am I going to have to install Gentoo and make everything statically linked?

No matter what directory I select as the new root, I get the same 
message, "cannot change root directory to /my/path: Operation not permitted"
