Hello,there!
I deleted my /tmp in fedora core 14 accidently.
How could I recover it?
Could you give me some help?
Thanks for you help.

Hi,

Assuming that /tmp is not a partition, execute the following (as root):
Code:
mkdir /tmp
chmod 1777 /tmp
Hope this helps.

First,Thank you for your help!
I know "chmod 777 file" means change the file mode to "rwxrwxrwx",
but I can't reach the "1" in command "chmod 1777 /tmp".
could you make it clear?

And what if /tmp is a partition?

Wait for your reply.

If /tmp is (was) a partition, what does your /etc/fstab look like? drunna's advice should still work.
