On Debian systems, it is common to run the stable distribution, and
then reserve a specific area of disk for the unstable distribution,
which one can use as if it were the entire installed OS via 'dchroot
unstable'.  To make this work, certain directories have to be
accessible to both systems, and bind mounting is the usual solution.
I think the original poster complained of problems in a chroot.
Without the second, the first mount will not solve the problem in a
chroot environment.

Take care,
