Hi!
Two questions:
1) Why can't I use "systemctl start network" in a chroot environment (e.g. mounting the system from a rescue medium to fix a defective kernel)? When I try I get: "Running in chroot, ignoring command 'start'"
2) How can I start the network using systemd?
You may wish to consider "booting" the container rather than just chrooting.
Combined with IPVLAN or similar (which systemd-nspawn makes easy) you
can bring up a namespaced network interface inside the container
completely isolated from the host.
I do this for various setups and it works pretty well.
