I thought UDF was a nasty hacky CD file system arrangement that Microsoft used to make CDs look more like hard drives.
On the other hand, it's about freakin' time that a recent Linux could run a Xen DOM0 again. It's at least a year overdue, maybe close to 2 years. And if they've fixed the power-saving features to the point where my primary box can hibernate again, I can forgive UDF for the moment. On Mon, 2010-12-27 at 14:06 -0500, William L.

Stick with <= 2.6.36 if you want to keep support for UDF.
