Hi Paul,

I'm not working on this because I don't consider it a bug. There are several
ways to customize the partition table one wants on the nodes and I consider it
normal that you change the partitioning for your nodes if you don't like the
default.

The method described in my previous email is (IMO) the best one, it gives you
full control over what will happen. Alternatively:

- copy the disktab file you want to adapt from /opt/oscar/oscarsamples/*.disk
- edit it, i.e. in your case add a line like

none            -         tmpfs     /dev/shm defaults

- select the edited disktable file when building your preferred image

I hope this helps.

regards,
Erich
