Will Apple someday let us to turn of caching a disk completely off? This would be mainly for development. I read someplace that gsos caches the most recent directory access info, and the cache NDA, only controls the block caching done by gsos.. I've just had a directory crash yet again on my hard drive, and now I have to backup/init/restore the whole drive just because the directory is too messed up to even get rid of now. I am looking for a way to turn of directry caching in gsos, so that the directory wouldn't have turned out so bad. I even had part of a toolbox macro file go in the directory (it was in memory someplace from something else..) This happend from a program, trying to create a file to a directory that didn't exist... Getting a tad sick of having my hard drive directory structur being completely wiped out by most anything that can go wrong with gsos... -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ UUCP: uunet!marque!lakesys!dougm Compuserve: 70611,2215 INET: dougm@lakesys.lakesys.COM APLE: DougMac ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
