NAME
     bastille bootstrap -- Bootstrap a release or template(s).

SYNOPSIS
     bastille [-pux] RELEASE [ARCH]
     bastille [-x] TEMPLATE

DESCRIPTION
     The  bastille  sub-command  will  bootstrap  a release to use when creating
     jails. It will also fetch and verify templates if a url is given as an  ar-
     guement.

     bastille bootstrap [-pux] RELEASE [ARCH]

	     -p, --pkgbase
		     Bootstrap	using  pkgbase (FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE and above).
		     Bastille uses distribution sets by default, but this option
		     enables the use of package sets when bootstrapping  FreeBSD
		     release.

	     -u, --update
		     Update the release after bootstrap.

	     -x, --debug
		     Enable debug mode.

		     If  ARCH is specified, it will be used to bootstrap, as op-
		     posed to using the hosts arch.

     bastille bootstrap [-x] TEMPLATE

	     -x, --debug
		     Enable debug mode.

		     TEMPLATE should be a url containing either  a  single  tem-
		     plate, or multiple templates.
