How do I increase the size? bash# grep tmp /etc/fstab /dev/sd0b /tmp mfs rw,-s=131072 0 0 bash# mount /tmp bash# df /tmp Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on mfs:11035 31391 1 28879 0% /tmp I suspect this is something to do with the "fake disklabel" in newfs.c; I've tried twiddling various numbers to no avail -- I seem to be hitting this 32Mb limit whatever I put in there!
