My  host os is Nas4Free and is stripped version of freebsd - e.g I
cannot even compile ports - that is why I use jails - so no new kernel
for me there :)

So far I am quite happy with it  - I use it mainly as DLNA
server(Serviio), ZFS,UPS support & Transmission made it quite good
platform - would take plenty of time to get all this in plain FreeBSD
install.

The only thing that I might be missing is Plex, but due to lack "browser
per folder feature", I will stick to open standard - DLNA.
