It would normally be cleaned on boot anyway, so I think we can avoid putting this in the Release Notes if we clean it automatically. I'm thinking it would probably be best if we delay mounting tmpfs on /tmp until after this has been done. And also unifying the overflowtmp logic since unless you look at the boot failures carefully, it's not clear why this happens. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
