Hi everybody,
I am looking for updated package with xfs kernel module. My system is
SL5.2 64bit version
and kernel version is 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen (it's a virtual machine).
# locate /xfs.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko
# rpmquery -f /lib/modules/2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.ko
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5.x86_64
So the xfs module is included with the 2.6.18-164.6.1.el5xen kernel package.
-----
Before Scientific Linux 5.4, xfs was an SL addition.
Red Hat included it in Enterprise Linux 5.4
Red Hat only included it for x86_64, so the i386 version is still an SL
addition...
Note that the RH xfs doesn't play nice with MD RAID-5 though there is an
unofficial patched kernel floating about which seems to fix it...
