First off: Google Groups is making your posts very ugly. Please either
fix them before posting, or use a better client.

As to chrooting: It'd look something like this, in pseudocode:

if sys.argv[1] == "chroot":
    chroot("/some/path/to/new/root")
    do_stuff_in_chroot()
    do_more_stuff_in_chroot()
    exit(0)

do_stuff_not_in_chroot()
os.system("python my_script_name.py chroot")
do_more_stuff_not_in_chroot()


There are many ways to do things, but that's one of the simplest. You
have two completely separate processes.
