[cs631apue] How to Extend the file system in NetBSD?

Hey Guibin,

If you're referring to assignment 1, I believe the test script generates
~2GB in /tmp, which is problematic if that's mapped to a tempfs with < 2GB
of space. Fortunately, the script tries to use the TMPDIR environment
variable before going to /tmp, so if you define
TMPDIR=/somewhere/in/primary/filesystem, it should store the temporary
files there instead. If you're looking to expand the fs for another reason,
sorry for the irrelevant suggestion.

Regards,
Patrick Grasso
