do you have WIPE_TMP="yes" in /etc/conf.d/bootmisc? if not (and you |
| 20 |
don't have any other means of cleaning /tmp, chances are you have too |
| 21 |
many files in /tmp (e.g. every movie you ever viewed with firefox). |
| 22 |
you can change the setting like the example above and reboot the machine |
| 23 |
and it'll clean you /tmp. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
note however that every boot will completely wipe out every file you |
| 26 |
have in /tmp. |
