What was the error?  Did you change directories to 'etc' as instructed in the 
handbook? (If so, `cd /usr/src; make distribution DESTDIR=$D', and see if you 
get the same error.)  Not changing directories on my system successfully 
built the distribution.

Are you typing `/etc/rc.d/jail /start wotan' ? If so, it *should* be:
`/etc/rc.d/jail start wotan'
Note the lack of a '/' before start.
