Sorry for the delay in responding.

You now have editorial access to that page. I see it needs quite a bit
of work, starting with the removal of any references to CentOS 5.

If you have any problems, please ask.

I've changed the http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/InstallOnExt4 page

It works fine since C5.4, only that at the time, due to the fact that 
ext4 was still a technology preview,  the required boot option had a 
slightly different name instead of ext4.

 Great, go ahead: http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/InstallOnExt4

 Can you put a bit more text around what you are doing there (especially
 why you drop to a shell to do the formatting and partitioning)?

Thanks. Yes, I will elaborate it a bit.

Not sure about QA team, but I've just tested ext4 install using linux  
ext4 on CentOS 5.5. Works fine.

Hummm... Perhaps merits a mention in the Release Notes.  Don't see it in 
either ours or upstream's.

Doing that as we communicate. :-)

I also note that the procedure does not seem to be spelled out in the 
upstream docs, or at least I have so far failed to find it.  Any links 
welcome.

A logical place would have been:
