I doubt SGI has a lot of money to burn :p. Regarding a
suggestion that I do it myself, I am afraid I am
rather short of time currently. Perhaps sometime
during the Easter break, but I must warn that I have
never dabbled with Mandrake's installer before.
Also, since the XFS-enabled kernel is currently a fork
off the standard kernel tree, an installation with XFS
would require not only a different kernel for booting
the install process, but also a different kernel to
install on the target, and the use of initrd (which I
am not sure if Mandrake still uses, since the latest
LILO/GRUB both support booting straight off ReiserFS
partitions...)
Someone at Mandrake please? I pledge my money to
buying a boxed set of Mandrake 8.0 if it includes XFS
- seriously. (Having bought several of SuSE's
releases, and one of RH's, I am not against spending
real money on Linux if I deem it adds something nice)
Regards,
Michel Salim
