I've run chrooted environments which for various purposes needed:
  • A variety of files from /etc, such as the two you noted above.
  • various dynamic libraries needed by chrooted binaries, and a copy of the ldconfig(8) "hints" file /var/run/ld.so.hints.
  • Device special files.
hmm yes.

but what are Device special files?
