Cannot reproduce the issue.

The command return FALSE as expected and outputs a "Device or resource busy" error 
message.

Weird, reports no error on my PC: http://pastebin.com/cryCawhk
Though I asked my friends and it works as expected for them.

Perhaps it's caused by my kernel (2.3.32), will double check with newer one
