I'm currently using tmpfs for /tmp, /run and /var/run on my Guix
Systems.
If you are interested, this is my base file systems:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(cons* (file-system
(device "none")
(mount-point "/tmp")
(type "tmpfs")
(check? #f))
(file-system
(device "none")
(mount-point "/run")
(type "tmpfs")
(needed-for-boot? #t)
(check? #f))
(file-system
(device "none")
(mount-point "/var/run")
(type "tmpfs")
(needed-for-boot? #t)
(check? #f))
(delete %debug-file-system
%base-file-systems))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Thanks
