Do you get any error messages?  You will need to provide sufficient
information so that I can see what is going wrong and hopefully
reproduce the problem myself.  I didn't see any useful information
attached to this report.

If you are running a true "Lenny"/testing system, there has not been a
change in the version in this distribution since the 27th of January.
What is the output of

  schroot --version

?  Your bug report indicated 1.0.5-1, which is the version last
uploaded on the 27th of January.  Check
/usr/share/doc/schroot/changelog.Debian.gz and run

  dpkg -s schroot

to verify this.


Please run

  schroot --verbose ...

and

  schroot --verbose --debug=notice ...

(where ... is your usual options) and attach the output of each to
your reply.  Use script(1) to log the output if needed.  Please also
attach your schroot.conf, or the output of

  schroot --config


Regards,
Roger
