Jails are not available on Leaf.

Probably should be jailed if folks are going to do full OS builds on them.

Anything less - even a 'wheel' user - will probably NOT work.
It isn't supposed to work! (Nor do I understand why anyone should want 
it to).


This worked before on 3.9-p1 and now works with Chris's suggestions. As 
I mentioned before in the begining of the thread that this is a nice way 
to veryify that the world builds on a seperate machine before commiting 
and breaking the tree.

I agree fully with that - you are to be commended for the concern and 
the effort.

But would use a 'local' box, or at least one in my own data center.

OTOH, easy for me to say - I am blessed (cursed?) with a packrat's 
collection
of available gear - wouldn't expect everyone to have as much junk lying 
close
to hand.   ;-)
