Introducing pleezer: a Deezer Connect player

The /tmp dir at least on PiOS is mounted by systemd as type tmpfs which AFAIK is a RAM based file system.

On my moOde install it seems mounted on the SD card:

Code:

roderick@headphones:~ $ findmnt -T /tmp
TARGET SOURCE         FSTYPE OPTIONS
/      /dev/mmcblk0p2 ext4   rw,noatime

If it were tmpfs, then yes that would also work well to save the SD card.

Wow, I always thought systemd mounted it as a tmpfs :-0

After some digging it turns out the systemd unit "tmp.mount" is not enabled by default on PiOS. The file location is /usr/share/systemd/tmp.mount

To enable it

Code:

sudo cp /usr/share/systemd/tmp.mount /etc/systemd/system/
sudo systemctl enable tmp.mount
sudo reboot

Then we get

Code:

pi@moode9:~ $ findmnt -T /tmp
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/tmp   tmpfs  tmpfs  rw,nosuid,nodev,size=2070800k,nr_inodes=1048576

But best to leave it as-is on PiOS. Now the RAM file option in pleezer makes sense :-)
