# switch_root
> Use a different filesystem as the root of the mount tree.
> Note: `switch_root` will fail to function if the new root is not the root of a mount. Use bind-mounting as a workaround.
> See also: `chroot`, `mount`.
> More information: <https://manned.org/switch_root.8>.
- Move `/proc`, `/dev`, `/sys` and `/run` to the specified filesystem, use this filesystem as the new root and start the specified init process:
`switch_root {{new_root}} {{/sbin/init}}`
