I have a question about /dev/shm... On my Aurora SPARC Linux 0.32 systems, running 2.4.x kernels, I have this information from mount:
$ mount /dev/sda4 on / type ext2 (rw) none on /proc type proc (rw) /dev/sda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw) none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) /dev/sdb1 on /opt type ext2 (rw) none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) fw:/home/chj on /home/chj type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.1) fw:/var/mail on /var/spool/mail type nfs (rw,addr=192.168.1.1) and on my debian 3.0 sparc SS20 (sun4m) system I do not have /dev/shm mounted, and no "device" (directory) either... I run Rob's 2.4.19_2 kernels... What is this /dev/shm and how is it used? Do I need to create a /dev/shm and mount it? If so, how? Cheers, /ChJ
