From aa73618df5474f1c51c0c37a32831d04e8435cc9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Wed, 26 Mar 2014 08:12:43 -0600 Subject: dev-manual, ref-manual: Noting TMPDIR cannot be on NFS Fixes [YOCTO #5442] Updated the TMPDIR variable to call out the scenario where a user might want to separtely set TMPDIR to a local drive and thus be able to have the Build Directory on NFS. Updated the "Build Directory" term with a note indicating that by default, TMPDIR is inside the Build Directory and thus cannot be on NFS. However, the user is able to by-pass that per setting TMPDIR separately outside of the Build Directory.
