>From the man mount page Mount options for ramfs Ramfs is a memory based filesystem. Mount it and you have it. Unmount it and it is gone. Present since Linux 2.3.99pre4. There are no mount options. ~~ I'm guessing what you really want to use is tmpfs which actually does have a size option. Ramdisks are of a defined size (at least they were in kernel 2.4 or less, they have changed in 2.6 IIRC) and are only writeable by root (in 2.6), tmpfs on the other hand is user-writeable and size-defineable.
