Hmm but check this:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-xfs&m=100740237824601&w=2
(TAKE - restrict xfs inodes to 32 bits)

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-xfs&m=99928901910853&w=2
(TAKE - mkfs/growfs 32-bit inode number awareness)

Now are these restrictions going to be released after the latest 2.5
kernel (that includes Peter Chubb's 64-bit patches that removes 2TB
limit)? or that doesn't mean Linux VFS supports 64 bit inodes still?
