Subject: [gentoo-user] [off-topic] - can /var be placed in a separate partition?

Hi, All

Is it possible to have /var in a separate partition, mounted during boot?

Or do the boot process need it to read/write to it?

I have found that mounting local file systems is one of the very first tasks
on "rc boot".

Thanks
Francisco
