Hi all,

I was wondering if it makes sense to try reducing flash disk wear by 
creating a RAM disk and using it for /tmp? It would also have the 
benefit of improving access times, but with the loss of the used RAM. 
Has anyone done this? Is it possible? Is it worth doing?

Also, just for experimenting, I would like to be able to mount the root 
fs from an NFS server. This means I can experiment with different 
configurations and try out packages without having to install them on 
the flash disk. I can see that hpcboot has an option to have the root fs 
on NFS, but I can't see where to specify the server and path. Does 
anyone have any notes on how to do this?

I have a Jornada 720, NetBSD 2.0 and a 512MB Flash Disk.

Many thanks,
Rich
