   Well, now I know the origin of evil (the SBo tmp files),   
   I could clean /tmp manually, but ...   
      
   This is a bit new to me.  Does tmpfs for /tmp mean   
   an entry  in /etc/fstab?   
      
   I have   
      
   (...)   
   /dev/sda6  /tmp ext4   defaults         1   2   
   (...)   
      
   And should I now write   
      
   tmpfs   /dev/sda6      tmpfs   defaults        0 0   
      
   BTW can it be a problem to have too much partitions?

   Good to know, but in my case perhaps too much, no 24/7 machine. Thanks!
