Hi,

Reproducible:
- Mount a file via loopback
- Copy several files to that new file system
(I updated some kernel modules on the RAM disk)
- File system hangs?

I'm seeing this on a 386 with 8 MBytes RAM, so the problem may be
low-memory related.

Another one: freeramdisk doesn't seem to actually free anything? free(1=
)
outputs before and after show some difference, but freeing my 3 MB boot=
RAM
disk should cause something like a 3 MB change in _some_ number. Well, =
it
doesn't...
