## Re: for refracta ascii: xephyr?

Based on this set of instructions, systemd-nspawn looks a lot like running a separate OS in a chroot:

On the subject of running a chrooted system, you can use xephyr to run a chrooted xsession. I don't know how that compares to systemd-nspawn in terms of security. I tried running the chrooted xephyr in firejail, but that failed. I didn't pursue it.
chroot_dir holds the alternate installation. That system must have xserver-xephyr installed along with whatever else you want to run.

Code:
  `mount --bind /sys ${chroot_dir}/sys
  mount --bind /proc ${chroot_dir}/proc
  mount --bind /dev ${chroot_dir}/dev
  mount --bind /dev/pts ${chroot_dir}/dev/pts
  chroot "$chroot_dir"
  su "$user"
  Xephyr :1 -screen 1024x768 -resizeable & sleep 2 ; jwm -display :1`
