Well in the end the answer was much simpler than expected. I am creating a RH kickstart CD and was playing with the packages I should include. I did include xfs but didn't include X. A message from the ini.d/xfs file would have been nice indeed as xfs doesn't start when there is no /usr/X11R6/bin/X.

Kindof funny actually... some people have complained that xfs should be updated to log this using syslog, however in the majority of syste >s out there, /var/log is on the same partition as /tmp usually is - "/", and if the disk is full, the disk is full. I seem to recall xfs was updated to do this anyway, but I'd have to do a test setup to confirm it. Not a priority... -- Mik > A.
