Stupid question really.
On my servers I'd like to mount /tmp as a ramdisk, for several
reasons. How would i go about this with linux? Is it as simple as
putting it in the /etc/fstab? where do i define the size of such a
disk?

Theres no place like ::1
Thanks,

fstab
tmpfs /tmp tmpfs auto,size=256M,uid=0,gid=0,mode=1777 0 0
Your question is a little bit off-topic.
Happy new Year!
