Have you read the comments in /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf ? You previously already had tmpfs-on-/tmp under sysvinit as you've set it in /etc/default/rcS. This setting was migrated when systemd was installed. Are you saying this setting was incorrectly migrated? Can you attach your /etc/default/rcS? As for your question: If you want to get rid of tmpfs-on-/tmp, run systemctl disable tmp.mount and then rm /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
