Eric, Seth:

I have on production rh 7.2 with XFS and kernel 2.4.9-13SGI_XFS(plus new
patches for aacraid) in dev server. Besides I did a kernel udpdate
to other web servers and they are working preeti good.

PE6300+adaptec+percRaid+(2-6x36 Gb disk)
PE6400+"""""""
2450+""""

I only had some problems today with a qla2x00 module working with a PV650F
I couldn't use fdisk under kernel 2.49-13 + qla2x00. I used one previous
kernel (2.4.5 with XFS version 1.0.1 + some patches) and previous
qlgic module version. With that I could use fdisk. After I boot with
2.4.9-13 and voula...!!! I could access to /dev/sdc (strange??!!)

My only comments that for me this versions is stable, no bugs found , and
it has very good performance, in all servers. RH 7.2 XFS installer
perfect ...good work XFS team.

Q. Anyone in the list has this kind of HW to see if they've installed
a PV650 with kernel 2.4.9-13SGI_XFS? probably they can comment to me
their experience in private.

Thanks Eric, Seth for your help...
