One option: Boot up in run-level 1, or single mode, and there will be very little running. /var probably won't be mounted, and even if it is, you could dismount it. Do your drive meddling in this mode, then switch back to the normal run level (telinit 3 or 5), or reboot. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
