I don't recommend placing /var/log on tmpfs. Instead I recommend you
take one of these actions:
could you please summarize why?
3: Disable system logging using sysv-rc-conf or something similar. You
might target sysklogd and/or klogd for disabling.
hm, i have to have a look at it - sysv-rc-conf seems to be pretty useful
program...
The above ideas assume that the only logging you don't care about will
come from syslog. If you truly don't care about /anything/ that might be
written to /var/log/, you can go ahead and place it on tmpfs, and copy a
template (or skeleton) over that filesystem at boot. The template would
contain the files and directories needed by the applications that use
/var/log.
the latter is true. i really don't care about anything that is in
/var/log. syslog and apt were just two examples that i encountered so
far. i will then probably go the 'skeleton' way for apps where i don't
find a way how to change the path (apt, for example).
thanks,
