I see no reason why the sa scripts should disallow moving /tmp to an
unused partition.  As distributed by NCR the script checks a file called
/menu/data/nomvdir.d for directories that cannot be moved.  For some
reason /tmp is included in it.  In my opinion it often makes sense to
dedicate a partition to /tmp, so I simply edited /menu/data/nomvdir.d,
ran the script again, and since then all seems to be just fine.

Why was this disallowed by the script, and do you see any reason why
it should not work mounting /tmp?
