I wrote a utility (attached) to make the process really fast and easy:



jail_build(8): Build FreeBSD jails from binary distributions


Here's a simple howto:

Step 1: Create a landing zone for your binary distribution =
(jail_build(8) looks in `/usr/repos' for binary distributions)...

sudo mkdir -p /usr/repos
sudo cd /usr/repos

Step 2: Download one or more binary FreeBSD distributions (any version, =
any platform)...

wget -r =
ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/8.1-RELEASE

Step 3: Download jail_build(8)...

cd
wget http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/download/jail_build.txt
mv jail_build.txt jail_build
chmod +x jail_build

Step 4: Build your jail(s)...

./jail_build
