Jail question

[dteske at freebsd.org]

Got it... (script inline below)

The first (and only) argument is to be a path to a 4.11 jail's root directory.
For example, if you take a FreeBSD-4 box and rsync it to "/usr/jails/myold4box"
on a FreeBSD-8 machine, you should then execute:

update411binaries.sh /usr/jails/myold4box

Then just configure the jail and fire it up. Of course, these are vnet jails.
