Package: initscripts Version: 2.86.ds1-1 Tags: patch Recently I was bitten by #303656 on an old router with little memory. With the information in that report I was able to resolve my issue. In conjunction with that, I propose the attached patch to incorporate aj's statement regarding the semantics of the TMPFS_SIZE parameter. The additional information in the comments will probably help another administrator avoid this problem in the future.
