Does anyone know what this is used for ?

Something new to 2.6

df -k
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 27585244 6996644 19187332 27% /

devshm 385212 0 385212 0% /dev/shm
lrm 385212 17580 367632 5% /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/volatile

My problem is that I've just done a system restore and I believe that the reason for networking not starting at boot has something to do with the modules being mounted in that directory.

/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/volatile has modules and a .mounted file

If .mounted exists linux doesn't mount it.

So is it safe for me to rm -rf the contents of volatile ?
