[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] IT2006 beta - /var/run vs /tmp

[From: Frantisek Dufka]

Hello,

looks like /var/run is no longer mounted/linked to /tmp or other tmpfs 
filesystem. I'm not sure but think in 2005 both were tmpfs (maybe one 
was softlink to another). Is there some reason or is it a bug? Both seem 
to contain temporary stuff but /var/run is now in flash.
