Changes to the configuration and defaults of tmpfs filesystems:
5
In version 2.88dsf-23 of the initscripts package, the RAMLOCK,
6
RAMSHM and RAMTMP settings from the /etc/default/rcS file have been
7
moved to /etc/default/tmpfs. These settings can not be
8
automatically migrated. Please move these settings to
9
/etc/default/tmpfs if changed from the defaults.
11
In order to improve the default size limits of tmpfs filesystems,
12
it is now possible to configure the size as a percentage of the
13
total virtual memory. The default for /tmp and /run/shm is now
14
20%VM rather than 20% (RAM). A tmpfs will only be mounted on
15
/tmp on systems with more than 64MiB RAM.

sysvinit (2.88dsf-17) unstable; urgency=low
21
In version 2.88dsf-17 of the initscripts package, the /etc/mtab
22
file used to record which filesystems are mounted has been replaced
23
with a symbolic link to /proc/mounts.
25
The tmpfs filesystem mounted on /lib/init/rw has also been removed,
26
with all packages using /lib/init/rw having switched to using /run.
27
The migration process means that it will not be possible to
28
automatically remove the /lib/init/rw directory until after the
29
release of wheezy. However, it is safe to manually remove the
30
directory, which is no longer owned by the initscripts package.
31
Note that old init scripts in deleted (but not purged) packages may
32
continue to use /lib/init/rw; it is recommended that these packages
