Hi,
we're planning to use RedHat (7.2/7.3) on a Beowulf cluster.
For data storage we would like to use XFS (mainly because it
has virtually no inode limitations), so I looked for XFS
patches on oss.sgi.com.
Unfortunately, the people at SGI seem to be a bit behind,
as their latest 2.4.20 kern

XFS comes with it's own version
Hi Folks,
I hope that you are well, I need to find out if I can use the dump
utility with ReiserFS or SGI's XFS. Man pages say for use with ext2 and
by extension ext3 I guess.
Secondly I was thinking of installing XFS, the only question I have is
if I upgrade the kernel
Hello All,
So ReiserFS is solid, how does SGI's XFS compare to that ? Anybody have
any comments on this ?
Cheers,
Aly.

To put it briefly:
If it don't need breakin', don't fix it.
There's no compelling reason to go to XFS, or JFS, or Reiserfs. If ext3
works for you, use it.
I've found problems with each of the other fs types, on "some" machines.
ext3 is stable.
JMHO-YMMV
Ric
General purpose use really, web surfing, email, and some programming
occasionally.
Let me put it this way ... is there any compelling reason (such as a
large performance differential) to choose xfs over ext3, given that I
have been using ext3 trouble-free for the last year and a half.
Thanks
Depends what you are doing, for general purpose use of the laptop like
an end-user sort of thing, ext3 should be good enough.

I wanted to get some opinions on XFS versus ext3. I am currently running
ext3 (RH 7.2), but I was wondering whether it might make sense to run
xfs on a laptop I am going to be installing RH 8.0 on, since it seems to
have better performane characteristics. Any opinions, gotchas, ...

I have to agree there, I find it really strange that

it's a really good filesystem and supported on all

Hi, list!
I just upgraded from RH 6.2 to 7, and when trying to start
X, I get an error stating that it can't load the default font "fixed" and
reports that it can't use "unix:/-1". In the xfs config file, it's set
for "unix:/7300"

I'm running RH 6.2 w/updates. I recently upgraded my XFree86 version from
3.3.6 to 4.0.1 from XFree86's install script.
Now, when XFS tries to start from the init scripts, I get the following
error:
"usage: xfs [-config config_file] [-port tcp_port]"
I checked the init scri
