This script will download the latest ZNC snapshot and install it so that it can be used for running a chrooted ZNC. Read the comments in the beginning of the script to learn more.

Done

You should now su to root.

There are some files in the chroot which need to be created by root:
(This assumes you are using linux, good luck for other OS)
    mknod -m 644 ${CHROOT}/dev/random c 1 8
    mknod -m 644 ${CHROOT}/dev/urandom c 1 9
    mknod -m 666 ${CHROOT}/dev/null c 1 3

You need a user and a group which will be used to run ZNC:
    useradd --user-group --home-dir=/home/$USER $USER
    chown -R $USER:$USER ${CHROOT}

After this, you should be able to start ZNC.

To start up ZNC for creating a configuration, run this:
    su $USER -- -c '${CHROOT}/usr/bin/znc --makeconf --datadir ${CHROOT}/home/$USER/.znc'

To start and stop use these commands:
    start-stop-daemon --chroot ${CHROOT} --chuid $USER:$USER --start --exec /usr/bin/znc
    start-stop-daemon --chroot ${CHROOT} --chuid $USER:$USER --stop --exec /usr/bin/znc
