FreeBSD Jail Confusion

December 30th, 2008

I'm confused about a FreeBSD jail I've setup. I'm using the ultradesic minichroot.sh script to enter the jail, but it doesn't seem to affect what's happening. I run a kldstat (kind of like lsmod in linux) in the host environment, and get this output:

# kldstat

Id Refs Address    Size     Name 1    7 0xc0400000 906518   kernel 2    1 0xc0d07000 6a32c    acpi.ko 3    1 0xc1d8a000 22000    linux.ko

And then I enter the jail and do the same thing:

# ./minichroot.sh /usr/jail6

MiniBSD6 / # kldstat

Id Refs Address    Size     Name

kldstat: can't stat file id 1: Invalid argument

kldstat: can't stat file id 2: Invalid argument

kldstat: can't stat file id 3: Invalid argument

I wouldn't be bothering with this, but I'm trying to mount a disk image:

MiniBSD6 / # mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 1m

mdconfig: failed to load geom_md module: No such file or directory

Doh!
