[chef] running chef in a chroot

[Bryan Berry < >]

hey guys,

i am looking at pre-baking some machine images to do the slow parts
ahead of time. I plan to run chef again later at deploy time to wire
together when i deploy the machine image to wire it into my
infrastructure.

Are there any special considerations I need to make to do this? I
assume I have to monkey patch services so that they don't actually
start, stop, or restart services. Anything else? Last but not least,
is there a tool that already does this?
