Also, since this is RH7.3, you might have to do a "df -k" to find out
which physical partition /temp was mapped to.  Copy and comment out the
corresponding "LABEL=3D/temp" line in your /etc/fstab, then edit the copy
to point to the /dev/hd? that df reports and change the directory
(second column) from /temp to /tmp.
