/tmp appears under the / filesystem but is actually located in swapspace.
The idea being that the /tmp directory is cleared when the system is rebooted.
They don't mean using slice 7 as extra swap space do they?
Was the request from a 'generic' source ? As tmp directories/filesystems are different on Unix O/S's.
It may mean that they/it requires a 8gb /tmp filesystem, which means creating a seperate tmp filesystem.
let tmp in root.
make a big enougth /
and let also /usr in root. (to save space)
/tmp is used in boot process before the oder slices
consulting /etc/(v)fstab, are mounted.
for sol8 2gb root should be OK.
NOTA: swap is on slice 0, don't try to change this,
else you get problems. -----------
