I have setup one jail using ezjail. My first surprise is that ezjail only installs -RELEASE versions and not RC versions. Ok, I supouse that it is normal. But my first question is: can I install a
FreeBSD 8.2 jail under a FreeBSD 9.0 host??

I have upgraded my ezjails using something like:
env UNAME_r="8.2-RELEASE" freebsd-update -b /usr/jails/basejail -r
9.0-RC1
upgrade install

This is some hassle, for example, one has to upgrade /etc and /var in /usr/jails/newjail by hand. (And maybe even more, not completely sure
there.)


is not possible to update the jail using "ejzail-admin update -u"
instead of use freebsd-update directly??

Updating can be done, upgrading not. (Thus, a security update can be done,
a full version not, if I understand it correctly.)

This functionality exists (prematurely) in CVS:

https://erdgeist.org/cvsweb/ezjail/ezjail-admin.diff?r1=1.263&r2=1.264&f=h


Me too ... But downloading latest ezjail-admin code from cvs:

    885     # Make the host systems os version our target version
    886     # Users can override this by setting the UNAME_r
environment variable
    887     ezjail_osversion_target="`uname -r`"
    888
    889     # Finally run freebsd-update to upgrade our basejail
    890     env UNAME_r="${ezjail_osversion_source}" freebsd-update
-b ${ezjail_jailbase} -r ${ezjail_osversion_target} upgrade install

 If I am not wrong, it is possible to do a full upgrade between
releases, right??

 ezjail-admin cvs's version is 1.269:

# $Id: ezjail-admin,v 1.269 2011/07/27 11:20:32 erdgeist Exp $

I think the installing of the new world is not included. (Thus, the part after the first reboot when doing a freebsd-update to 9.0-RC1 on the host system.)
