Hello Matt,

you have three options:

1.) in rc.conf you can set "VAR_SIZE". You can even do this on your live
system. Just reboot altering this setting.

2.) you can adjust the size in the 'rc' file (live system or build
system), target/generic/target_skeleton/etc/rc

3.) resize the filesystem with "mount -o remount,size=$VAR_SIZE /var"

regards,

Ingmar
