Here's what i did to fix this: - modified /etc/init.d/voyage-sync to remove /var/tmp and /var/log from directories that are always synced - added 'var' as sync directory in /etc/default/voyage-util - moved /var/cache to /rovar/cache and /var/lib to /rovar/lib since these directories are large and i don't need them writeable. - created symbolic links : ln -s /rovar/cache /var/cache, ln -s /rovar/lib /var/lib
I still had an issue where it was writing over my symlink. This turned out to be some stuff in the /ro folder that was overwriting on startup. I deleted the contents of the ro folder. Now everything works great and my var folder syncs.
