I recently took over a x86_64 CentOS 4.0 server running an "unsupported"
kernel. On examining the box it seems that perhaps it is because of the
use of xfs and netatalk. I would like to update the box to 4.3. I think
I can do away with the netatalk, but doing away with xfs would require a
substantial amount of work.
Questions:
1: In reading the archive of this list there was a post regarding the
kernel in the Testing repo supporting xfs. Is this the case and if so,
would it be a "bad idea" to run that kernel without essentially runnning
a test box using all packages from the testing repo?
2: Does the same kernel include netatalk support? It would be easier to
leave the netatalk in place if that were so.
3: Should I just bite the bullet and get rid of the xfs? I'm not sure
what predicated the choice of filesystem in the first place.
Any thoughts/comments would be welcome,
Alex Palenschat
