I am on the XFS list, and have been for a long time. I really recommend
KRUD, and in fact have asked Kevin for a long time to add XFS support to
it. KRUD itself is updated often, available in subscription format at a
low price relative to Redhat, or in single CD's at a price comparable to
that of CheapBytes. But bugs and errata, and things that make it just
work right from the start, are applied (which is what the monthly update
subscription does, it keeps up on security and other issues). KRUD and
tummy.com are not a fly-by-night setup, the distro is actively used in
their consulting business. Having officially and actively updated KRUD
(redhat) could make a big difference.
