Have you contacted SoftRAID as this would appear to be an issue with
their kext.

He was in touch, and I had suggested deleting the kextcache and mkext cache files also. I don't think that worked, but Mike has not been in touch in a couple days.

I don't think this is a specific problem with our kext, but I have
passed this on to Tim Standing to investigate.

thanks dhan


Quite frankly I think he has a corrupt kext, probably from file corruption -- most probably caused by his unclean shutdown. The other possibility is he has silent file corruption, which of course would be much worse.


But I'm fairly certain, from the indicators, that it's not a kernel cache issue.
