(modprobe oopses when trying to load xfs.ko - and then hangs.)

Hi FAI users,
another huge and fast cluster was installed using FAI. The HPC2N
Opteron cluster named sarek (after Sarek National Park) has a total of
384 processors and 1.54 Tbyte of memory:
* 190 HP DL145 nodes, with dual AMD Opteron 248 (2.2GHz)
* 2 HP DL585, with dual AMD Opteron 248
is 2.6.5 compatible with woody?
