BTW, rather than make /var/log be a symlink, it's better to use "mount" with the "bind" option, so that a different file system is mounted over the top.
that way if there's a problem with boot, there's a failsafe as the /var/log directory will still work. Add a startup to do the mount-bind and then restart the syslog process and/or systemd journald so as to drop the file handles on the normal /var/log and use the new file system.
so something like
