            Bug ID: 293414
           Summary: bsdinstall: tmpfs /tmp and/or /var/run should be
                    install-time option
           Product: Base System
           Version: CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bms@FreeBSD.org

Why isn't /tmp and/or /var/run on tmpfs a bsdinstall option? The bugs were
shaken out of tmpfs some time ago.

Whenever I turn up a FreeBSD instance now, I am adding this to /etc/fstab:
tmpfs                   /tmp            tmpfs   rw,mode=1777    0       0
tmpfs                   /var/run        tmpfs   rw,mode=1777    0       0
