Not at all! XFS is very stable. If you want the full capabilities of an XFS-capable kernel, you better stick with 2.4.5. It's good enough for production systems (the guys at SGI use it for streaming very big computer-graphics-heavy movies et. al. Makes me wonder - they used Linux systems in the production of "Final Fantasy: The Movie." Did they use XFS?) Anyway, I'm still using 2.4.9 with XFS patches on a Debian stable system with the XFS filesystem on almost all (except the /home partition). Lots of stuff in XFS sure do look like 2.5 material. Anyway, XFS works fine with me (especially with my big files such as a 300 MB Oracle database file and my anime movie files). Paolo Alexis Falcone __________________________________ www.edsamail.com
