Are you sure about this? I have files dating back from 1999 on my
/var/tmp, but an uptime of only 16 days.
However, perhaps /var/tmp really should be wiped on startup. The
following init.d file would have to be executed first, though.
[557] [snoopy:bam] /etc/rcS.d >ls -l S70nviboot
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Feb 10 2000 S70nviboot ->
../init.d/nviboot*
Also, it might be important that this directory has the correct
permissions and ownership:
[562] [snoopy:bam] /etc/rcS.d >ls -dl /var/tmp/vi.recover
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Oct 16 19:38 /var/tmp/vi.recover/
