wouldn't a simple 'df' command provide you this info

No it doesnt say where my /var is mounted

Try just issuing a "mount" command with no options. It should list of the mount points.

I suspect you want this for a script?

what you want is to traverse the filesystem to find where a directory is located. "df /var" WILL give you that value because df must figure out which filesystem a path is located. "df -P /var" will give it Posix format which is easier to parse.

Depending on how your disks were partitioned, /var might not be a separate file partition and may be included under the / partition.

Check the /etc/fstab which contains static information about the filesystems. If /var is not listed in that file, then /var is not a mounted filesystem, but is part of the root or / partition.
