I don't understand if it's a regression you are pointing out or what
else, because i see a consistent behaviour on my destktop: the mkfs.extX
cmd, if it doesn't find a ramdisk, it creates one, while mkfs.vfat
simply fails out - so you either runs that test with a ramdisk
previously created, or you change you change the filesystem, or it will
forever fail with vfat. Was that test run before? What was the
environment?


mkfs.ext2 /dev/ram7 8192:
...
open("/dev/ram7", O_RDONLY)             = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/dev/ram7", O_RDONLY|O_CREAT, 0666) = 3

mkfs.vfat /dev/ram8 8192:
...
open("/dev/ram8", O_RDONLY)             = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
dup(2)                                  = 3
fcntl(3, F_GETFL)                       = 0x8001 (flags O_WRONLY|O_LARGEFILE)
close(3)                                = 0
write(2, "/dev/ram8: No such file or direc"..., 37/dev/ram8: No such file or 
directory
) = 37

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
