my system: FreeBSD 3.4, qmail, Maildir, daemontools,
tcpserver.

i want to move /var to RAID (software RAID with
FreeBSD's "vinum").  i'd like a sanity check on what i
plan to do:

- bring /var2 online.  /var2 = RAID
- reboot into single user.  don't start qmail & MySQL
since they use /var.
- copy /var to /var2
- edit /etc/fstab to switch /var and /var2
- reboot into multiuser mode

will this result in an intact /var?  is this what
people do when they want a more reliable qmail mail
spool?
