First off, is it possible for anyone outside of SGI to get write access
to the CVS tree? (I'm not suggesting that I be given write access to the
CVS tree, I know just enough about the kernel to really break stuff
fast.)
Secondly, how much i386 specific code is in XFS, I'm very interested in
getting it ported to Alpha/PPC (the two alternative archs I have at
home) and am wondering when would be an appropriate time to begin
porting.
But the main reason I sent this message is to thank all of you down at
SGI, I am looking forward to having XFS on Linux, and I have it
currently in my system, and a 7G partiton dedicated to it. It made it
all the way through a kernel compile, but locked up my rm process when I
was nuking the kernel source. I am however, pleasantly supprised that
this thing compiles consistantly, and was amazed when it actually worked
(mostly). Thank you again for all of your efforts, and to a job well
done.
