I want to mount following folders as tmpfs in my Debian Lenny 5.0.6 installation:
/var/cache/apt/archives /var/tmp /tmp I have added the following lines to fstab: tmpfs /var/cache/apt/archives tmpfs noatime,nodev,noexec,nosuid,mode=0755 0 0 tmpfs /var/tmp tmpfs noatime,nodev,noexec,nosuid,mode=1777 0 0 tmpfs /tmp tmpfs noatime,nodev,noexec,nosuid,mode=1777 0 0 I recreate the partial folder and the lock file in /var/cache/apt/archives at boot time by adding the following lines to /etc/rc.local mkdir -p /var/cache/apt/archives/partial touch /var/cache/apt/archives/lock chmod 640 /var/cache/apt/archives/lock Iceweasel is modified to use /tmp as cache, so when Iceweasel is loaded after a reboot it creates a folder named Cache in /tmp. Everything seems to be working as expected, but i am wondering if doing this can introduce any security problems or break my Debian system in any way.? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
