A little bit late, but I moved 2 ezjails today (on 8-current). It was  
setup inside a ZFS, not in an image. It worked without problems (I  
transferred the ZFS data (zfs send | zfs receive), the fstab file, and  
the ezjail config file).

You have a problem here. You may want to look into ezjail what the  
testnetmount is doing. I assume there's some problem with creating the  
md device.

I think this and the rest are followup errors of the failed mount of  
the disk image.

Bye,
Alexander.
