I have placed somewhat current Mandrake rpms on oss.

ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/testing/Mandrake

These were compiled with kgcc and should be stable
the rpms in RPMSgcc where compiled with:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-mandrake-linux-gnu/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Mandrake Linux 8.1 2.96-0.62mdk)

Which may or may not be stable.

If anybody is willing and has the time to stress test these things
it would be really helpful in possibly getting XFS included in the
next release of Mandrake.

I see today mandrake has a new version of the kernel out, so I will
respin the rpms to include the latest updates from mdk.

Note the version of XFS is the same as the 2.4.8 snapshot patch.
I have yet to determine if the top of tree is stable enough and
or compatible with 2.4.8+ac but hopefully it is and the next
set of rpms will be the latest and greatest bits.
