However… if I add to the host’s config a DISK IGNORE /, then while
the text (as above) only shows /tmp, I lose /tmp’s graph line and it
only graphs root.  I’ve tried including the IGNORE line both before
and after a line for /tmp, with no effect.  As soon as I add the
IGNORE line, /tmp’s graph line vanishes on next update.
Try this:

HOST=foo
	DISK %^/$ IGNORE

so you use a regex pattern that only matches "/" to ignore that
filesystem.
I was expecting this to work - but now I have

Filesystem         1024-blocks      Used Available Capacity Mounted on
none                    131072     15456    115616      12% /tmp

and below it, / is graphed.  The graph line for /tmp vanished.  I'm very
confused.
Hmm, yes - that can happen because you now have two RRD graph files, but
only one graph showing up on the webpage. You should have both of them
on the graph in the "trends" column, though.

Either wait 48 hours - then the root-filesystem graph will go "stale" and 
automatically be ignored on the "disk" status graph display. Or you can go
to the ~hobbit/data/rrd/HOSTNAME/ directory and delete/rename the 
"disk,root.rrd" file out of the way.
