Andrew ... for the older kernels, you can get the SGI module here:
http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/testing/i386/RPMS/
(look for kernel-module-xfs and the kernel you want)
That is much more stable code than is in the 2.6.9 tree and it is
installable against the standard kernel.
I am waiting for SGI to provide updated code before I build for the
2.6.9-34.EL kernel. When I get that code, I will produce a new and
improved XFS for the 4.3 kernel.
Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
