question about vfstab

Hi all,

I have been trying to figure out a way to mount swap on /tmp at a stage early than the default script that does it...
If anyone knows how it can be done pls pls help me!!!!!
I have been struggling a lot for it

Secondly, continuing with the same issue...
I wanted to know if the entries in the vfstab are initially hand coded ?
I mean during the development of the OS , will /etc/vfstab be created by hand and the details added?or is the creation of vfstab is through some other scripts?

My primary focus here is to mount swap on /tmp before its done by iteslf...
am unable tofind the script that does it,if anyone has an idea pls share !!!
while going through this ,i came up with the question about vfstab, thats all!!

Thanks
