Creating RAM disks as a non root user.

All,

I've got to create a RAM disk for our new system.  I've found this little
utility called genext2fs the web site is
http://sourceforge.net/projects/genext2fs/
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/genext2fs/>  but my question.
What do other people use to do this? Why should I have to become the root
user just to create a RAM disk I can do everything else without becoming
root on my development machine.  I would like to be able to make this next
step as well.


Regards,
Rod Boyce.
