Using ramfs for incoming queue

[Spicer, Kevin]

Old man page maybe?  Here the relevent bits from mine (Mandrake 9.1)....


Mount options for tmpfs
       The  following  parameters  accept  a  suffix  k, m or g for Ki, Mi, Gi
       (binary kilo, mega and giga) and can be changed on remount.

       size=nbytes
              Override default size of the filesystem.  The size is  given  in
              bytes, and rounded down to entire pages.  The default is half of
              the memory.

       nr_blocks=
              Set number of blocks.

       nr_inodes=
              Set number of inodes.

       mode=  Set initial permissions of the root directory.
