Change /tmp folder to another disk

Hi,
I'm on Chromebook and I don't have a lot of space on my arch partition (13go)
Can I move the /tmp folder to my Chromebook partition rather than my Arch partition ? (this partition is configured to be mount at boot).

This is my tmp directory that I have configured for yaourt and pacman

pwd
/mnt/8ad14aed-119e-4f63-967c-c4bc37413d22/tmp
ls -l
drwxrwxrwx 3 root root       4096 26 oct.  01:13 tmp

Re: Change /tmp folder to another disk

/tmp should be mounted in the RAM by default? Are you sure you have it as a separate partition on your HDD/SSD?

Re: Change /tmp folder to another disk

Ok, I was thinking that it was using the ssd space. So there's no problem if this file is on the RAM !
And yes I'm sure, Arch is on my /dev/sda7 and ChromesOS on /dev/sda1 (partionned with gdisk)
