[geeks] creating a RAMdisk under Solaris8?

You can mount other stuff on swap:

root at zephyr  /root
3 > mkdir /RAMdisk

root at zephyr  /root
4 > mount -F tmpfs swap /RAMdisk

root at zephyr  /root
5 > df -k
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/proc                      0       0       0     0%    /proc
/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0    1984230 1618192  306512    85%    /
fd                         0       0       0     0%    /dev/fd
