Yes you can get rid of bcache0, but you can't re-use the device for anything unless you reboot ( re bcache or just plain fdisk/parted ).
In fact whether you unmount before stopping the bcache or not doesn't change the behaviour. I did that this way in the description, to show the process. You just stop the caching device with the echo 1 > ... But, the backing is still in use and you have no control over it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to bcache-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377130 Title: Crash at creation of bcache if caching size > backing size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bcache-tools/+bug/1377130/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
