    Hi,
    I have a large amount of RAM (2go) on a laptop, and a friend adviced me
    to mount tmpfs into the RAM.
    When I 'free' or 'top' I see the RAM is never fully used.
    Unfortunately, I dont know how to do that.
    I'm running FC4. Would you know a "Fedora compliant" method to ilplement
    such a thing?
    Is it just about editing fstab? what value with (how to specify I want
    to use the RAM)
    Thank you.
