 == DESCRIPTION
 
-*pivot_root* moves the root filesystem of the current process to the directory _put_old_ and makes _new_root_ the new root filesystem. Since *pivot_root*(8) simply calls *pivot_root*(2), we refer to the man page of the latter for further details.

 Note that, depending on the implementation of *pivot_root*, root and current working directory of the caller may or may not change. The following is a sequence for invoking *pivot_root* that works in either case, assuming that *pivot_root* and *chroot* are in the current *PATH*:
