Well I noticed the problem for the sake of the community and reported it. :-) I am happy that we have some Red Hat folks helping out here. Thank goodness I do my own regression testing before I roll out a new release. > > Feel free to report this all to the RH bugzilla - depending the > implications of the regression for supported configurations, it may need > to be fixed in RHEL anyway. Yes, I could since I work full-time for a company that has an extensive (7-figure) RHEL deployment, including XFS use licenses. However, I'll have to go through an I.T. channel since they hold the accounts. I'll investigate whether they will let me do this since they do not use XFS on root. I would need them to back me up first. > > But now you know the problem, you can probably fix it yourself > rather than have to wait for RHEL/CentOS product cycle updates... > Yes, thank you. > PS: has the fact I quoted a RHEL5.9 commit id triggered a lightbulb > moment for you yet?

And from Red Hat, Inc. as well. -- Tom _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
