Have you by any chance recompiled/reconfigured your kernel lately?
My first guess would be that you don't have tmpfs support in your
kernel. You can try a `grep TMPFS /usr/src/linux/.config` and  should
see the line "CONFIG_TMPFS=y". If it doesn't, I'd suggest you re-lin
linux and turn it on. You'll find it under:
File Systems -> [*] Virtual memory file system support (former shm fs)
