If you wanted to run FreeNAS from within FreeBSD 9.x, just install VirtualBox for FreeBSD and then you could run from within that. I have not done it myself but I don't see why it wouldn't work.Hi,
Thank you for this great tutorial..
Once FreeNAS has been built on FreeBSD, can it alsao be run From a FreeBSD jail?
Many thanks

I'm still on vacation so once I return I will take a look at updating this thread to ensure it still works as written.
You sure can. FreeNAS at the most basic level is only FreeBSD with a lot of unnecessary services for a file server stripped out, some scripts and a pretty UI added. The whole intent of FreeNAS is to take the very complex FreeBSD and "dumb it down" enough to allow standard users that have never used FreeBSD to use its amazing feature set without spending years getting familiar with FreeBSD.
