Does not that would break users expectation that the system image contains /var before the first boot ? A lot of things in /var are caches that are mostly instance-independent and can be prefilled, but for that, users expect a minimal directory hierarchy to be present before first boot. It seems your scheme favors some usecase over some others. Cheers -- Bill. <ballo...@debian.org> Imagine a large red swirl here.
