What really would be great, was a
/usr/share/examples/devfs/jail.rules
and some updates to the manpages.
Maybe we could work out a jail.rules example in this thread.
What did you do about the mem/kmem/console/log devices in your setup?

Is it planned to have names/aliases (default, jail, ...) for rulesets
instead of numbers (1, 2, ... )?

It would also be interesting to be able to print the rules of ruleset 0.
Is there a trick to get those?

post scriptum:

Think the jail(8) man page should also mention the -D switch to mergemaster.
Something like:
----8<----
Updating the Jail.

make installworld DESTDIR=$D
mergemaster -i -D $D
---->8----
