I have not quite made my mind about having /var totally in
memory---meaning loosing any hints if something would happen.

BTW, I was planning to add a partition, on a served disk, for third
parties' programs (in this case Samba), so that they keep their logs
with the disk served and outside the system /var.

And I had named the partition (gpt) "var"...

IIRC, even with the "noauto" option in fstab, /etc/rc.d/mountcritlocal
was trying to mount it...based on the NAME. (I haven't investigated
further since I needed to update the image and restarted from zero not
putting this in fstab anymore.)
