[Centos] CentOS 4 dual boot

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Another quick question-
	In reading the "official" release notes for EL4, I ran across this-

> Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 support for SELinux uses Extended
> Attributes on ext2/ext3 file systems. This means that, when a file is
> written to a default-mounted ext2/ext3 file system, an extended
> attribute will also be written.
> 
> This will cause problems on systems that dual boot between Red Hat
> Enterprise Linux 4 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1. The Red Hat
> Enterprise Linux 2.1 kernels do not support extended attributes, and
> can crash when encountering them.


Anyone run in to this problem? It kind of quashes my hopes of keeping a 
running RH9 system sharing the /home directory with Centos 4- but what 
the heck.
