hello,
i would like install a redhat-system 8.0 with XFS-Filesystem support.
That is possible. There is a XFS Red Hat 8.0 installer on the FTP site.
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/
Don't forget to update the kernel on it after installing.
If you want a dvd you can also find a link in the archives to a complete
Red Hat 8.0 with XFS support installer.
A image redhat-7.3-xfs is avalaible but some programms on my other machine
run's under redhat8.0 and i would like work with redhat > 8.0
Please could an tell me what is better
If your program needs gcc-3.2 or glibc 2.3 you will need Red Hat 8.
Redhat 8.0 and a kernel-update or redhat-7.3-xfs-image or
redhat-8.1-xfs-beta(if is avalaible) ?
We only have a Red Hat 8.0 installer, there is not enough manpower to make
installers for the beta products.
And may i become many problems when i compile the kernel with XFS-Support
self?
There should be no problems in installing or compiling another XFS enabled
kernel. The on-disk format is the same.
Please could any her say what is the best way to install and the best
stable XFS now?
If you need a Red Hat 8.0 box and you already have the Red Hat 8.0 CD's I
suggest fetching just the 8.0 XFS installer from the FTP site and upgrade
the kernel to the 1.2pre5 version which is available.
Cheers

It might just be your lucky day, if you only knew.
