That would be weird, it's one of the boot-mode settings so it would be hard to get it wrong. What's printed upon bootstrap about caches? Anyway these days we apparently ignore the result of the S-cache probe and the sc_present variable. The only values that determine whether an S-cache is present or not are: cpu_has_dc_aliases, cpu_has_ic_fills_f_dc and cpu_has_subset_pcaches which you need to get right for your configuration -- I guess cpu_has_dc_aliases == 0, cpu_has_ic_fills_f_dc == 1 and cpu_has_subset_pcaches == 0 should be right to fulfil your needs (but it may break elsewhere). Have I heard: "serious brain damage" from you? Well, I couldn't agree more... Maciej
