on 5-12-2008 3:47 PM Linux spake the following:
XFS is an add-on module that the CentOS developers added because people wanted it. The official filesystem of CentOS is the same one that upstream has in RHEL -- EXT3. To see if a filesystem is truly supported by a distro is to see if one can select it at install time. Everything else is added on for someone else's benefit.On Tue, May 13, 2008 at 1:15 AM, Tru Huynh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:On Tue, May 13, 2008 at 12:40:22AM +0300, Linux wrote: > What a coincidence.

Just to show that XFS module was loaded for WRONG kernel.

Just that time? If so too bad CentOS folks do not update every piece of kernel as a whole in repositories. Where is integrity? If not, "yum update" does not update everything at once. I have to run yum update twice maybe more. First it will load kernel then see that a new kernel is available, will go and bring its modules... Still, it is a bit annoying and confusing. I am beginning to think whether XFS is really supported in CentOS :)
