[arm-allstar] tmpfs percentage

[Doug Crompton]

Luc,

 I have no idea what is going on. Your df does not show it. Is it actually
mounted? If so how are you mounting it? I do not specifically put anything
in /etc/fstab  instead I use devmon to auto mount at boot which works
fine.  A line like this would check if devmon is running and if not start
it in the background.

# check if devmon is running, if not running,  start it
pgrep devmon &> /dev/null || /usr/bin/devmon &> /dev/null &

You could add this in  /etc/rc.local at the top.  As long as devmon is
running any removable media will be auto mounted in /media

BUT A better way is to load it as a systemd service. First see if it is
already loaded -

# systemctl status devmon at service
* devmon at service.service - devmon Service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/devmon at .service; enabled; vendor
preset: disabled)

If it is not loaded do -

systemctl enable devmon at service
systemctl start devmon at service

Then when you do  systemctl status devon at service  it should show loaded.

Don't add anything in fstab. The system should detect and mount any
removable media under /media at boot or whenever you insert it.

To make it come up with a specific name you need to use something like
Gparted on a Linux desktop on the stick to give it a name label.  I
labelled mine MS1 for mass storage 1.  So it gets mounted as  /media/MS1
