Fantastic!! I was going to do the same, but another project deadline took
priority.  All my boxes are slackware and not having an XFS aware kernel
on a boot floppy has been a pain when upgrading my machines (more
correctly - erasing everything and starting over, nothing like a clean
slate).  Feel free to contact me if you want these images mirrored at my
slackware mirror site.

Make sure to use the CURRENT tree because the older 7 does not have large file support. This was one of the first things I noticed on a Slackware system with a XFS kernel. But for the rest it functions properly.

Cheers
