Hi David and Chris!
I tried df-ing but there's no conclusive output about where my poor
"/tmp" directory is! :(
Here's the output from the root directory -
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda7 3.9G 3.4G 351M 91% /
varrun 375M 120K 374M 1% /var/run
varlock 375M 0 375M 0% /var/lock
udev 375M 112K 374M 1% /dev
devshm 375M 0 375M 0% /dev/shm
lrm 375M 38M 337M 10%
/lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/volatile
/dev/sda6 99M 24M 71M 25% /boot
/dev/sda8 1.5G 1.2G 184M 87% /home
/dev/sda1 37G 37G 283M 100% /media/sda1
/dev/sda2 28G 26G 1.6G 95% /media/sda2
/dev/sda4 4.3G 4.2G 153M 97% /media/sda4
/dev/sdb1 1017M 375M 643M 37% /media/disk
</end>
No joy? There's a strong chance that "/tmp" is on the same device as my
root, but shouldn't there be a more conclusive way?

I've a directory called "tmp". How do I know which device (/dev/sda?) it's
mounted on? Is there a command that I can use?
`df` will list all mounted partitions. If it is not listed, then find
the parent directory closest to tmp (if you're talking about /tmp,
then either you'll see /tmp mounted to some partition, such as
/dev/hda6, or, otherwise, it is part of the root partition). If you're
not sure, you can paste your `df` output in the list (and the exact
location of your tmp directory; I suspect you're talking about /tmp,
but you may want to clarify).
