[okl4-developer] Running applications from hard drive

[Ivan Pulleyn]

Make sure all the x-related library directories are in /etc/ld.so.conf
and then run 'ldconfig -a' to populate the cache. Also your x
installation probably doesn't expect to be run from under /mnt so you
may need to chroot inti /mnt first.
