szabgab has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I just wrote some code using Sys::Ramdisk. It worked well on OSX, but when I switched to Linux it complained:
Mount command '/bin/mount -t tmpfs -o size=100m tmpfs /tmp/ramdisk' failed: mount: only root can do that
Is there a way to get it working on Linux without running it as root?
