A quick look in /proc/filesystems confirmed this, and another quick look in /boot confirmed that the new kernel I had made was not installed where I thought it was! After fixing this, and rebooting, creating the XFS file system proceedes without an error message, and mounting the filesystem is fine. Thanks! Andrew. |
