Yeah, sorry, I did forget to mention that I did a force run on the backing
device so that I could get to its data.
In doing so, I probably invalidated options to try and reply the cache to
see if things would crash, or not, sorry about that.
Now, if I try to make the cache available again, will the code be smart and
not try to reapply a stale cache (never mind that it's probably corrupted in
addition to being old?)
Thanks,
Marc
