Subject: [gentoo-user] What is the proper fstab line for shm memory (tmpfs)
Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:13:12 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1267186392.8861.9.camel@rattus> (raw)

I have a number of systems with different shm lines in fstab - but which
is correct? - I think they all work, but which is best (and why)?  The
main use I am concerned about is a PXE system with root over nfs where I
am putting the portage tmp and some other stuff in tmpfs for speed.

tmpfs	/dev/shm	tmpfs	defaults		0 0
shm	/dev/shm        tmpfs   nodev,nosuid,noexec     0 0
none	/dev/shm	tmpfs	defaults                0 0

I suspect the middle line is correct.
