Yep, I'm booting off of the XFS 1.0.2 cd.
Yep, the partitions are of type 83, as follows:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 838 1689376+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 839 969 264096 5 Extended
/dev/hda5 839 969 264064+ 82 Linux swap
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdb1 1 6242 3145936+ 83 Linux
/dev/hdb2 6243 65531 29881656 83 Linux
I have a stock Red Hat 7.1(XFS) system (no lvm, not sure what md is, so I
probably haven't installed it :)
Lilo is on /dev/hda of course.
Hope this helps,
Thanks again,
Trevor
