Hi Zaxxon,
Thanks for your quick reply.
Itīs a Adaptec AIC7880 raid controller intergrated on the mainboard.
While the Bios postings are on the screen I can access the raid settings by pressing CTR-A.
There isn't much to set here.
No boot settings or what so ever.
In the main (motherboard) bios the first startup device is the Raid Disc.
So everything is ok.
But when the Bios postings dissapear and the OS should start it hangs with a blinking cursor and then reboots automatically after 1 minute.

I've just replaced the secondary disk drive (was 4 Gb) with a Seagate Barracuda 7200 200 Gb. However the OS seems to think this is only 500 Mb and a spin speed of 5400, although it correct recognises the drive as Seagate ST3200822A.
I take it that it still thinks the old drive is attached. How... (5 Replies)

cachefsd
cachefsd(1M) System Administration Commands cachefsd(1M)
NAME
cachefsd - CacheFS daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/fs/cachefs/cachefsd
DESCRIPTION
The cachefsd server implements features of the cache filesystem (CacheFS). It is invoked at boot time and run if the / (root) and /usr
filesystems are being cached. If /usr is being cached, cachefsd is invoked by inetd(1M) from inetd.conf(4). At run time, cachefsd is
invoked by the inetd mechanism in response to an RPC request from a user command such as mount_cachefs(1M).
The cachefsd server supports the "disconnected mode" of CacheFS. In this mode, a user can continue to read and, depending on the option
selected, write to files in a cached filesystem when the NFS server for the cached files is not available.
The cachefsd daemon performs the following functions in support of the CacheFS:
o Implements the connection policy. The daemon determines whether the NFS server backing the cache is connected or disconnected
from the cache, or is in transition from the connected or disconnected states.
o Implements "log rolling," wherein the daemon monitors a disconnected NFS server for reconnection. After such a server returns to
a connected state, cachefsd rolls any local changes to cached files (kept in a log) back to the server.
o Manages "packing," wherein cachefsd makes a best effort to ensure that files in a user-specified list are available in the cache
in disconnected mode.
o Supports user interfaces by supplying statistics, reporting conflicts between the cache and the back filesystem, and supporting
a list of files for packing.
The running of cachefsd is required for the disconnected mode of CacheFS.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-r Used for invoking cachefsd for the / filesystem.
