No, subversion 1.1 is too old; FSVS needs at least 1.4.
But for this situation there's an easy workaround: use FSVS' chroot-helper. See here for details: http://fsvs-software.org/doc/doxygen-gif/group__howto__chroot.html I got it working on Suse 7.3 (from 2001 or something like that) with a 2.4.21 kernel by using a debian sarge base install (with debootstrap) (because of the 2.4 kernel, which modern glibc doesn't wants), and the 1.4.2 package from sarge-backports (http://packages.debian.org/sarge-backports/subversion). I don't know your machine x86, 32/64bit - if you trust me, I could provide you with a chroot tar of my 32bit x86, so you only need to compile the tiny chroot-wrapper program on RHEL4. Hope that helps - at least it's exactly the situation I wrote the wrapper for ;-) Regards, Phil -- Versioning your /etc, /home or even your whole installation?
