Look here: http://kmself.home.netcom.com/Linux/FAQs/partition.html Also, if you're going to keep shmfs (or tmpfs in the newer 2.4 kernels, I'd keep it if you have plenty of RAM) you can use a neat trick to mount /tmp over /dev/shm using a bind mount. For example, I have a server with 2G RAM; here are the relevant entries from /etc/fstab: tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs size=768M,nr_inodes=65536 0 0 /dev/shm /tmp none rw,bind 0 0 HTH, -- Nathan Norman - Incanus Networking mailto:nnorman@incanus.net Warning: dates in calendar are closer than they appear.
