.IP "\fBTMPFS_SIZE\fP"
Maximum size for all tmpfs filesystems if no specific size is
provided. The default is \fB20%VM\fP (20% of virtual memory,
-including swap space). If no value is provided here, the kernel
-default (50% RAM) will be used. Note that the "%VM" suffix may be
+including swap space). If this is explicitly set to an empty string, the
+kernel default (50% RAM) will be used. Note that the "%VM" suffix may be
used in this and all the _SIZE settings below, but may not be used in
/etc/fstab (the absolute size is calculated by the init scripts).
