I am experimenting with jails and ezjail on a FreeBSD-11.0 bhyve vm
guest. I followed the instructions in the handbook to install ezjail
and create a jail instance. I have connectivity issues with this jail
of which I have inquired in another message. However, in this case I
need to discover what the following error message is telling me:
> ezjail-admin update -u
> src component not installed, skipped
> Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 4 mirrors found.
> Fetching metadata signature for 11.0-RELEASE from
> update6.freebsd.org... done.
> Fetching metadata index... done.
> Inspecting system... done.
> Preparing to download files... done.

> Installing updates...mkdir: /usr/jails/newjail//boot:

> touch: /usr/jails/newjail//boot/kernel.old/.freebsd-update:
> No such file or directory
> Could not create kernel backup directory
If these directories are required by ezjail-admin why then do they not
exist? If they are not automatically created by ezjail then why does
the handbook not mention this fact and provide guidance on their
creation?
