Hi,

I don't think it's related to the issue.

[root at archlinux rocketmouse]# df -h -t tmpfs
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
run             7.6G  1.4M  7.6G   1% /run
tmpfs           7.6G  192K  7.6G   1% /dev/shm
tmpfs           7.6G  4.3M  7.6G   1% /tmp
tmpfs           1.6G   56K  1.6G   1% /run/user/1000

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/tmpfs#Usage

I only wanted to point out, that "tmp" where ever located, e.g. even
/tmp, not necessarily is tmpfs.

Better take a look at
https://www.google.de/search?q=arch+linux+%22filesystem+being+remounted%22+%22supports+timestamps+until%22

At least the timestamp part is unimportant.

"I can't off hand help with the remounting problem, but the timestamps
message is due to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem."

However, a lot of "filesystem being remounted" hits by the
above Google search are related to xfs. I didn't read the hits, so I
don't know if one of those hits is related to your issue.

Regards,
Ralf
