This is technically not Debian *Linux* at all -- it's a Debian project
to merge a BSD kernel with all the GNU shlibs and the various other
utilities used on Debian systems.  See
http://www.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd-gnu/ and
http://wiki.debian.org/Debian_GNU/kFreeBSD

jail(8) uses the same kernel image in the jail as in the base system.
So, in general, jails have to contain pretty much the same OS as the
base.  There are some variations possible, like running a 32-bit world
in a jail on a 64-bit box, or running alternate FreeBSD versions to the
main system (takes a bit of tweaking to make work properly, but this is
used by the ports build cluster for example).

	Cheers,

	Matthew
