So how, Eric, would that help, say, SuSE users -- which the XFS website makes special note to point out that there's a specific agreement in place to support. Even SLES users vice openSUSE, though the XFS.org website doesn't make that distinction. I'm sticking with "those are kernel package versions", and I was yelled at the other day because I was interested in things that weren't "mainline kernel versions". RHEL kernels are the *best available example* of "not a mainline kernel version", so I find these conflicting reports most conflicting. > > Kernel versions are w.x.y or w.x.y.z. > > ^Upstream. "Mainline". Which was not my choice of term. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
