I have had XFS on my alpha before. Assuming the code hasn't changed enough since I was doing that, I have one piece of advice I suggest you follow. Don't do it. You might get it to compile, you might even get it to boot, but then it might bork and do *evil* things to your filesystem. I've had all 3 happen to me, or not, in various combinations. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ MIEE Debian developer csmall at : enc.com.au ieee.org debian.org
