Let me ask for clarification -- which CVS are we talking about? SGI's XFS
tree? Probably not, because it doesn't contain "core kernel" code?! So we are
talking about CVSROOT=':pserver:cvs@xxxxxxxxxxx:/cvs', right?
Is the core kernel source that is part of the CVS tree always up-to-date, as
you seem to suggest? Then I'm still hesitating to use it. I'd like to use only
released kernel versions, not intermediate versions, because the latter are
simply broken sometimes...
Thanks,
Ralf
