I'm not sure, its whatever XFS that comes with the patches for 2.4.20 off the SGI ftp server. > So far I've found at least one bug that seems to be related to my > problem.

I'm just not going to use XFS on the alpha any more. Gone back to ext2 and all strangeness has disappeared. Still cannot boot a newer kernel with the hda interrupt failing, must be something to do with the IDE driver and irq 14 and 15 but not sure what. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
