Just in case you missed it, and I don't claim it is good (and should document it) but I have committed a working implementation of root-on-cgd a few months ago. It uses init.chroot, which I would like to replace with pivot_root at the very least. See: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2013/03/21/msg022311.html (most of the problems mentioned here were addressed in the meantime) http://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2013/07/thread2.html#045401 (one commit for init, three for amd64, then one more for i386) I am using this daily on an amd64 laptop, no problem there.
