Subject: [gentoo-user] What is the proper fstab line for shm memory (tmpfs)

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

6 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
7 shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0
8 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
9
10 I suspect the middle line is correct.
