Unfortunately this partition is very small, so not seldom do I get problems when trying to extract files etc. My idea is to have /tmp as a normal directory right under /, if that's a bad idea I have a few other disks/volumes where it can reside. My question is: how do I chaneg the /tmp location, when in INIT 5 I'm not allowed, and since this is a server I don't have a keyboard nor a monitor. So I must have it done through telnet (SSH). Is it possible, and what steps must I take? Thanks in advance! //J
