Okay. I'll try it -after I finish reading the XFS site in it's entirety <G>. I've been going through all the docs on installation there.
It appears that if I build a kernel (say 2.4.19) that I need to apply patches against it. The docs are a little unclear in that one page says I need to start with 2.4.18. The following pages say I can use 2.4.x and patch against it. What is true - am I stuck with 2.4.18? > I would guess that a simple > rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.18-SGI_XFS_1.1.athlon.rpm > would do the trick.
