- As far as I know, you should _not_ install the CDEV under A/UX.
-
- To enable the cache, before you boot A/UX make sure:
-
- 1. The CDEV is installed on your boot-up/start-up disk
-
- 2. That the cache is enabled via the CDEV
-
- If A/UX is booted with the cache enabled, it will stay enabled. To turn
- off the cache you'll need to shutdown A/UX (Restart) and, in the real MacOS
- mode, disable the cache and then boot A/UX.
-
- In other words, the CDEV is A/UX compatible but the cache is ;)
