I don't have root acess to a server which is running centos. I need a minimal ubuntu chroot environment in my $HOME . (just the apt-get, repositories etc to install packages and run them in terminal. display is not needed)

I was looking around the internet to find any information on this but most of the tutorials require root access.

How can I do this?

you can use sudo command and then it will ask your password so if you give your password it will get root privilege. and ask your system admin to incorporate your user into sudoers file

The command would be like this

sudo apt-get update

  • I can't get sudo or su access. That was the point of the question.

  • ask your system admin to add your user in the sudoers file with some limited permeation like your_user_id ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL Mar 7, 2014 at 9:57
