flash drive - ntfs

[jack]

I have a 4Gb flash drive that came with a strange part table on it...
I wanted to flush it and create an ntfs file system on it so that I
could then go through the tutorial listed here:
http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_edgy_eft_ntfs_ntfs_3g

I was able to fdisk this drive and remove the strange part table, and
changed the fs type to 87 (NTFS volume)...
But cannot create an ntfs filesystem on it, since all attempts to do so
return with "device busy"... I've tried unmounting the drive and
re-mounting, but get the same results.

Any input here is greatly appreciated.
