[PATCH] Use /tmp instead of /var/tmp for temporary data.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



/var/tmp is supposed to store temporary data which should be preserved
over reboots, wheras /tmp is for short-term temporary data.  Moreover
/tmp is usually tmpfs which may make generating initramfs a bit faster.

Thanks to Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@xxxxxxx> for pointing that
out.
