RapidDisk / RapidCache 2.13 now available. Not a huge update here. The changelog can be found here: http://www.rapiddisk.org/?page_id=19

There was a bug fix with rxadm binary and mapping RapidCache to pre-existing partitions. I added more information to RapidDisk proc_fs file. And addressed compile warnings for GCC 5.1. Also, this code has been tested on the 4.0 kernel.

Thanks go to Steven Rudolph for finding the bug and testing the fix.

You can pull it from the git repo: http://www.rapiddisk.org/?page_id=7 or download it from the SourceForge project page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/rxdsk/
