Sorry if this may be a little vague, but I am trying to help someone that 
has a 386sx portable & I do not know much about the system ...

I tried looking in the books I was shown, but I could not find any references 
to disabling the disk cache ...

Essentially we are experiencing many disk failures & I would like to run 
spinrite/optune & see how much better things got ... but they both complain 
about the cahing ...

Any hints?
