How long ago was it that we were hashing this one out before?

(As in, is it just  my imagination or has the recycle rate gone ski-high
in just that last few weeks?)

Anyway, for the record, it makes all the difference in the world whether
you use JMP FFFF:0 or emulate C/A/D, if you are using a write-behind cache.

Some people think this is a bug in SmartDrive...  (If you don't get
this, you really haven't been paying attention!)

Anyway, somebody ought to get Ralf to post the one true solution to the
auto-reboot program.
