SDB:Too Little Cache Memory Displayed During the Boot Process

Symptom:

During the boot process, the displayed cache memory is less (approx. 40 KB) than the actual hard disk's cache memory.

Cause:

Hard disk manufacturers require some memory for its firmware. The required memory is integrated in the cache, but is officially regarded as cache for disk data.

Solution:

Linux displays the actual available cache memory for the disk data. Therefore, the output is correct and no solution can be provided. <keyword>cache,harddisk,memory,EIDE,disk</keyword>
