Say you are booted into Linux1, and linux 2 is mounted at /linux2, you need to do this (assuming they are both recent distrobutions):

mount -t proc proc /linux2/proc
chroot /linux2

then inside the chroot, whatever you do should not disturb what's cooking in Linux-1

Remember to unmount proc from Linux-2 after leaving the chroot.
