you can most definitely patch 2.4.19 (its what all of my desktop boxes are running) with XFS. Then again, unless you really need something that 2.4.19 has, there's not any advantage that i've seen to go to 2.4.19.

Okay. I'll try it -after I finish reading the XFS site in it's entirety <G>. I've been going through all the docs on installation there.

It appears that if I build a kernel (say 2.4.19) that I need to apply patches against it. The docs are a little unclear in that one page says I need to start with 2.4.18. The following pages say I can use 2.4.x and patch against it. What is true - am I stuck with 2.4.18?


I would guess that a simple
rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.18-SGI_XFS_1.1.athlon.rpm
would do the trick.  You might need to manually update lilo.conf too.
