When this change had occurred some time in August (I think), I thought it was a new "feature" that I had to read about, but now I realize that it is a bug after reading the man pages. Memory file system when mounted automatically from /etc/fstab does not yield the size filesystem requested. It appears that ~32MB is what you get regardless of what you want, but I have not tried this for sizes smaller than 32MB. (Previously, the size was about the size of the partition [I think].) Is this a bug, or have I missed something? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE #0: Fri Sep 12 11:46:07 MST 1997 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ from /etc/fstab.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ /dev/sd0s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sd1s1b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/sd0a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/sd0s1f /usr ufs rw 1 2 /dev/sd0s1b /tmp mfs rw,-s=131072 0 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ yields this from df.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on mfs:28 31404 4 28888 0% /tmp ------------------------------------------------------------------------ It DOES work to mount a filesystem manually with mount -t mfs -o -s=131072 /dev/sd1s1b /mnt This yields Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on mfs:288 63567 1 58481 0% /mnt --Ed
