    Hi,

    It seems that it's fairly easy to get a ramfs stuck:

    # mkdir bar
    # mount -t ramfs bar bar
    # umount bar
    # mount -t ramfs bar bar
    # chown nobody bar
    # umount bar
    umount: /root/bar: device is busy
    #

    This doesn't appear to affect ext2 filesystems, though.

    Matthew
