I have ext3 and xfs running in a 2.4.14 kernel.  Some filesystems
are ext3 and some are xfs (from a FC raid device).  No problems
with both systems.  I had to remove an extra ksym but that is it.

We are going forward with ext3, although I am holding back space
to test xfs.  I could never get xfs to hold up under heavy load over
nfs.  By heavy I mean 20 clients reading and writing 1 GB files.
I hope to try out later versions of xfs.
