Reassigning. Yeah, /etc/default/tmpfs is _not_ a configuration file for systemd, therefore closing the bug. With systemd, by default, /run is mounted in the initrd¹. I don’t see the point in changing the size of /run, given how tmpfs works (i.e. RAM will not be used before you actually create files in /run) and considering the horrible failure modes of software not being able to write to /run, so I’d recommend against doing that. I’m not entirely sure about this, but if you insist on changing /run, try creating an entry for /run in /etc/fstab and see if systemd’s mount unit that is generated from that (run.mount) does what you want, i.e. whether it remounts the already mounted filesystem. If not, as a last resort, a Type=oneshot service file with a remount command will help. ① From /init from /boot/initrd.img-3.12-1-amd64: mount -t tmpfs -o "nosuid,size=20%,mode=0755" tmpfs /run -- Best regards, Michael
