I was using a chroot, and I bind-mounted the chroot's /dev and /proc and /sys on top of the host machine's directories. Bad idea... I now have a 10 megabyte /dev/shm on the host. Is it possible to resize /dev/shm to approx 1 gigabyte without rebooting?
And how do I set up a working /dev and /proc and /sys on the chroot separately to avoid this in future? I need /proc/cpuinfo because I have a build script in the chroot that checks the number of cores, and sets makeopts accordingly. Also I need /dev/null. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
