The purpose is similar - creating jails out of host system in fast
and easy way, possibility to strip everything unneeded (useful for
secure minimal jails or flash/livecd/embedded installations of
minimal size) and add something extra, like stuff from /usr/local
without installing full packages in a jail, or, say, copying over
additional tree of jail-specific changes (mostly stuff under /etc
and /usr/local/etc).
Such an utility is something I still might start working on.
I don't use the host system..
I keep a special pristine jail just for that purpose (to act as
a source for other jails). sometimes I also use null=mounts, and
sometimes if the jails are on one big partition, I hardlink some
stuff.. e.g binaries in /bin etc betweem teh jails.. saves memory and
disk.. Of course that is only when I basically trust the jail user
(me).
