I have 384M of RAM and I'm using VMWare. Currently I give it 128M to
play with, which because of that shared memory tmpfs Solaris-like voodoo
is implemented under /tmp.

For whatever reason, my system has set a maximum size of 188M on /tmp.

Since upgrading (downgrading) my VMWare image from W98 to W2k, I'd like
to increase the amount of memory it has to work with -- however, if I go
past 128M it rapidly fills up /tmp and VMWare barfs.

How can I increase the amount of tmpfs space in /tmp? 

Failing that, why the tmpfs voodoo and is there anything wrong with
blowing it away and using plain old fashioned disk space for /tmp?

thanks,
