hell no! |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
don't do that! |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
tmpfs for /tmp is fine |
| 40 |
and |
| 41 |
tmpfs for PORTAGE_TMPDIR is fine too. Like /var/tmp/portage. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
But don't put PORTAGE_TMPDIR into /tmp. Not good. Bad idea. Really. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
IF PORTAGE_TMPDIR fills up - no biggy, emerge dies, that's it. But /tmp filled |
| 46 |
up? Suddenly you will have lots of strange problems... don't do it. Spare |
| 47 |
yourself some headaches. |
