     of your shell.

     If the -u, -g, or -G options are given, the user, group, and group list of the process are set to these values after the chroot has taken
     place; see setgid(2), setgroups(2), setuid(2), getgrnam(3), and getpwnam(3).

     Note: command or the shell are run as your real-user-id.

ENVIRONMENT

     The following environment variable is referenced by chroot:

     SHELL  If set, the string specified by SHELL is interpreted as the name of the shell to exec.  If the variable SHELL is not set, /bin/sh is
