Knowing about this would have saved me several days after trying to
install the mageia beta (I now have it running with the
3.6.5-tmb-desktop-3.mga3 kernel as the 3.8 one is broken without a fix
to the recursive panic problem, which is fixed upstream). It's not
obvious to people who don't do it often :-)

Why not add a command to the rescue disk,
bind-mount dir - mount /dev, /proc and /sys as /dir/dev etc for chroot
