do I simply use sudo apt-get or do i have to type anythi else before?
Yes, something like that. Simply your mint installation can now execute commands as if you're in the console.

You should be root so you can simply run commands without the need for sudo...

using cat output is:

Code: Select all

#Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
# Do not edit this file by hand -- your changes will be overwritten

julioG,

Effectively it's empty - echo this to it. and if it still doesn't work from the chroot do the same to /etc/resolv.conf and try it again

Code: Select all

echo "nameserver  8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver  8.8.4.4" >> /etc/resolvconf/run/resolv.conf
