Description Andrey Rahmatullin 2006-11-24 23:04:43 MSK 
If I mount chroot/ as tmpfs, /usr/share/hasher/rmchroot fails when trying to 
run chgrp on chroot/

hasher expects that chroot directory can be deleted.
If chroot directory is mount point, it cannot be deleted so hasher won't work.
Comment 3 Alexey Rusakov 2006-11-25 13:07:15 MSK 
Is it crucial to be able to delete chroot directory instead of just cleaning it?

I suggest you to define persistent repo location via $def_repo, and place the rest of workdir on tmpfs.
