This README is became only informational since this functionality
has been implemented since jail_tools-0.05 (see README)


Another approach to run jails is via disk images:

   cd /dev; sh MAKEDEV vn0

   cd /usr/jails/

   dd if=/dev/zero of=192.168.0.102.dsk bs=1024 count=256000
   vnconfig -s labels -c vn0 192.168.0.102.dsk
   disklabel -r -w vn0 auto

   newfs /dev/vn0c

   mkdir 192.168.0.102
   mount /dev/vn0c 192.168.0.102   

and then
   jail_install 192.168.0.102
   jail_start 192.168.0.102

If you have to reboot the host, just remount the disk-image this way:

   vnconfig -s labels -c vn0 192.168.0.102.dsk
   mount /dev/vn0c 192.168.0.102
