Hmmm... the only idea I have is to see how format(1M) does it and steal the code to write a small disable-cache tool. :-) Have a look at uscsi(7I) and specifically the ca_write_disable() routine in http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/cmd/format/menu_cache.c HTH -- Volker -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Volker A.
