Applies to HPFS only; must be used in assocation with a RUN=CACHE statement. I have: IFS=C:\OS\HPFS.IFS /C:256 /AUTOCHECK:F RUN=C:\OS2\CACHE.EXE /LAZY:ON Nope! I admit that when you read the on-line doc's you may think that you need the run statement. It should be enough though to have the options in the IFS statement, i.e. IFS=c:\OS2\HPFS.IFS /C:256 /AUTOCHECK:F /LAZY:ON Note also that LAZY:ON is the default for OS/2 1.3. The CACHE.EXE program is meant to be run if you like to change any of the cacheing parameters, and it may indeed be run at any time, not just in config.sys.
