Why can't I flush /dev/ram0?

At this point, I'm trying to get an initrd working properly. So far, it works, the system boots, etc. etc., but whenever I try to do a "blockdev --flushbufs /dev/ram0", I get "device or resource busy" When I mount the filesystem to check it out, nothing appears to have anything open on the

Re: Why can't I flush /dev/ram0?

When I mount the filesystem to check it out, nothing appears to have anything open on the filesystem. So why am I not able to flush it clean? Because of a bug present in Linus tree. Try this patch: Thanks, that seems to have fixed it. There's something else I'm curious about though...
