First jail creation fails on 9.1 RC1

[nanda]

When creating port or plugin jails on 9.1, it invariably fails the first time on a newly installed machine.

I can't be the only one with this problem?

Fetching jail environment. This may take a while...

I have the same error , its looks like a write problem ??? Internet is not a problem , directly connected to router.

I remember something vaguely about weird issues with the i386 version with the jails. Someone thought it had to do with how little RAM you can allocate, but nobody really looked into it further. It was kind of expected if you wanted jails you'd be using ZFS, which also means you wouldn't be using the i386 version. If you follow that logic, then you wouldn't have your problem.

So what your saying is that instead of formatting my disk UFS i have to re-format in ZFS and that it should it work?

No, what I'm saying(if what i'm remembering) is that you need to use ZFS. By choosing to use ZFS, you need to have at least 8GB of RAM and use the x64 version.

And, there's no guarantee that it will solve your problem. There's always the chance there's a hardware issue somehow involved.

the dev people should not make the plugins for x86 then no? anyway i don't have this hardware specs.

Love live the manuel :

NOTE: a ZFS volume is required to use Plugins. If you have created a UFS volume, you will need to
instead use Jails to install additional software.

There we go. That's where I saw it. I couldn't remember and searching the manual didn't help. :)
