# apt-get install qemu-user-static
You cannot use the dynamically linked qemu because the host libraries will not be accessible from inside the chroot.

Next, copy the emulator for the target architecture to the path registered by binfmt-support. For example, for an ARM target file system, you need to do the following:

# cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static /target_fs/usr/bin
You should now be able to chroot into the file system:

# chroot /target_fs/

seems pretty quick, not like loading a regular Debian in a virtual machine?

I'm gonna try this now.
