Hello,

I'm having trouble getting an MFS /tmp set up on a system over here.  So
far I've tried adding: 

/dev/sd0s1b      /tmp    mfs  rw,nosuid,nodev 0 0

to fstab, where sd0s1b is the primary swap partition.  I keep getting
the message

  mfs: /tmp: operation not supported by device. 

syslogged whenever I attempt to run mount -a.

Does anyone know if there's an example of setting this up on the web
somewhere? 


TIA,
