Release-1.0.2
Our last fully tested release
patches/linux-2.4.17-xfs-2002-02-03.cvs-patch.bz2
A diff from 2.4.17 with our CVS repository on Feb 03. This
includes all of the CVS directories so you can run `cvs up`
patches/2.4.17/
Patches that are split based on functional area. These take a
lot of work and are done on an as needed basis. They help
others interested in integrating XFS into their kernels
understand what makes up the XFS patch.
If you need to move up to 2.4.17, I would suggest the patches in
patches/2.4.17. Test the kernel thoroughly before putting it in a
production environment.
