Any chance to fix the following bug in 2.4.x dmesg (from bootup message) ... change_root: old root has d_count=3 freeram /dev/ram0 File freeram.c: Line 41: ioctl /dev/ram0: Error 16: Device or resource busy I cannot free the old initrd root partition under 2.4.0-testx, but it works fine on 2.2.17. I used loadlin to boot up ramdisk initrd first, load the ide driver, and boot up the real linux. I hope you guys are still the one maintaining initrd, if not, please point me to someone who can help, or send me a few lines as to how I can fix this.
