/tmp is a real directory, and exists on the root filesystem. This allows boot programs to create temp files. Upon bootup, I bind mount /tmp to some other place, that has lots of place. This allows larger programs after booting to create larger files. This only works on linux 2.4, however. It's done with the following entry in /etc/fstab: /home.local/tmp /tmp none bind 0 0
