Hello,
If i set dumpdev to the slice (bad term?) representing /var, will the system be able to access /home ? (asking because symlinked /var/crash to /home/var.crash)

I think you're confusing two things there:

dumpdev is usually set to a swap partition, as in

dumpdev="/dev/ad0s1b"

The /var/crash vs. /home/var.crash issue becomes relevant when the system retrieves the core from /dev/ad0s1b while rebooting after the crash. This is done by savecore(8). At this point /home is mounted and available so you should find the crash dump there.
