Hi,
It sounds you have forgotten to mount /dev in the jail. You can consult http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/jails-build.html for all steps to do this.

It seems if you have no tty, you can't create a password. Surely there is a better way to do this?
Looking at the code, it's trying to open the tty and turn off echo.
For the record: FreeBSD 8.4-RELEASE-p3
And yes, there is no console. I'm attached to a FreeBSD jail from the host system, directly via the ezjail-admin console command.
