Jonathan, you're a genius! Of course it's so bloody obvious now you've pointed it out; the noexec option prevented bash (or anything else) from working.

I've edited it now and chroot works just fine.
Mike, it wasn't the way /proc was mounted. It's OK the other way too, provided that hda1 is mounted with normal defaults (as it would have been in Ubuntu Live, obviously)."I'm just a little old lady; don't try to dazzle me with jargon!"
