Jail cloning problem

[patrick]

So is it a repairable permissions issue, or is it something that I
could never fix? The jail wasn't built on its own filesystem, and
because I don't have a spare drive to do that, I'm hoping that there
is some way possible to make cloning work using tar.

Thanks,

Patrick
