kernel will support them. Is there any other way of adding xfs support to
plus kernel.
What I have been doing on FC3 on my laptop where I need to read NTFS is
to build my own kernel from the official src.rpm with a script imilar to
this (the latest is probably on my laptop, and that's packed up ready to
go):
Beware of probably line-wraps;

It's way more elaborate than you need, and you, of course, wll need to

You could also turn stuff off if you wish, but I'd not demodularise it
