Ah! I was missing a step there! Given your question, and this little note I noticed in jail(8), "[...] provided that you built world before already," I realized in my rush I missed an all important step. I fired off buildworld in the background and just came back to it. Now installworld works, as to be expected. Heh ^_^ I took it for granted on the previous install that I had already done this by the time I later built my jails.
Thanks for time!
