Hello All,

When mounting a tmpfs filesystem using busybox mount (20011223 unstable 
snapshot, uClibc) the size parameter is ignored. When I do the same with 
the busybox 0.60.1 (Glibc 2.0.7) it works fine.

BusyBox v0.60.1 (2001.10.18-21:35+0000) multi-call binary

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs                    15.0M      2.4M     12.6M  16% /
tmpfs                     8.0M         0      8.0M   0% /tmp


BusyBox v0.61.pre (2001.12.24-14:45+0000) multi-call binary

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs                    15.0M      2.4M     12.6M  16% /
tmpfs                    15.0M         0     15.0M   0% /tmp

It's time to learn c to fix things myself  I guess.

Merry Christmas,
