/tmp is most likely a tmpfs, a filesystem in RAM which will vanish (and all files and directories in it) as soon as the computer is rebooted. No, it's a dedicated partition on disk. But /tmp being wiped on (re)boot has been the norm and case for UNIX-based operating systems since nearly

Boot probleem

Hallo, Ik heb al vele computer problemen gezien, maar dit nog niet. Booten gaat goed, maar na grub en initramfs volgt er alleen een knipperende cursor linksboven. Als ik de tweede optie van grub kies zie ik iets meer tekst voorbij komen, maar niet iets waarvan ik denk dat het van belang is.

How to prevent /tmp files from being deleted at reboot

In Debian Jessie, systemd ignores the TMPTIME variable in /etc/default/rcS and just blindly deletes everything on every reboot. A bug has been filed about it: "#795269 TMPTIME not honored anymore" ( https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795269 ) But I tried the suggested solution,
