unsupported ones that probably will and need some evaluation.
If Joe wants an easy, supported option, it's SUSE Linux Enterprise
Server. I've got SLES10 on my laptop, and it includes xfs.
He just has to change vendor;-)
What I would do is try going with ext3. He may have to use LVM if he
wants 1 big slice, but I don't see any other serious disadvantages.
This way he can stick with the latest RHEL and not have to use less
optimal linux distributions for enterprise use.
If you read the beginning of the thread, you'd understand that ext3
doesn't do it without some dreadful hackery.
the problem is that ext3 filesystems are limited to 2**32 blocks, and OP
has more disk space than that. Lots more.
