it has no effect any longer, there is no shmfs anymore. now its just tmpfs (shmfs == tmpfs). so all you have effectivly done is created a second /tmp on /dev/shm i stopped mounting it there awhile ago and have see no ill effects, unlike older kernels sysvshm still works without it. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
