I am attempting to get something figured out dealing with the ramdisk under Linux 2.2.16. I am trying to figure out whether you can use the ramdisk to act as a RAM filesystem doing normal file creations and deletion. I noticed that within the code it makes comments about not having to free stuff up. Does that mean you can't delete things off the ramdisk filesystem? I have created a ramdisk, formatted ext2, and mounted it. When I create stuff on there, and then I delete it, I notice that if I do a df, the size doesn't go back down after I have deleted the file. I am trying to figure out if that is how it was intended to happen, or whether I have just done something not quite correctly and you can't really use it as a RAM file system. Thanks, Matthew M.
