This is still an issue with 10.04 and 11.04. Probably 10.10 too, but I'll have to wait until some more updates are available to test. Suggested fix: Use the size= option in the fstab line, which the mount command will report. Use the amount of free space in ram. Use the needed download size. Figure out some amount of ram not to use to keep the system running, and if the device free space comes back zero (which is what the system function reports for ramfs devices), calculate using the above to see if there is really enough space.
