Hello , 

    This is a general quest. not specific to RT- linux.
    I have created a ramdisk drive, Now can I creat a task 
    that should be notify of data to be written on ramdisk
    by another task.  
    Can u suggest the techniques to achieve to this.
    I tried it with select system call,but it is not working.
    Can we use select for any file ( residing on floppy or harddisk)
 
    The doubt is that once the data is written on the media, it 
    will available immediately & will remain there .


 Thanking you
