Description of problem:
XFS filesystem is missing in the kernel. There is simply no
alternative for large filesystems.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.8-1.528.2.10

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install RHEL4-Beta1
2. check for XFS in the kernel
3. check for xfsprogs
    

Actual Results:  XFS is not included in RHEL4-Beta1

Expected Results:  XFS is included in RHEL4-Beta1

Additional info:

I hope it's just a temporary lack of XFS in RHEL4. We really need it!

Comment 1 Tim Burke 2004-10-28 20:51:23 UTC
We are not including XFS in RHEL4. The reason being that there is not an
established business justification to warrant the dedicated developers it would
take to enable us to support it an enterprise responsible manner.
