Yes, any application writing to the partition makes the partition unusable.

Red Hat 7.0
kernel 2.4.6pre5-XFS (latest CVS)
no hdparm parameters of special mount options
N.b. this setup did work for a long time running Linux-XFS from SGI CVS. But
I didn't use
this system for a while only updating the kernel from CVS every one and a
