           Summary: Corrupted filesystem when using a XFS boot partition
           Product: Linux XFS
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: High
         Component: XFS kernel code
        AssignedTo: xfs-master@xxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: magsilva@xxxxxxxxxxx


I'm currently using Conectiva Linux Snapshot, kernel 2.6.3. I set up a XFS 
partition as boot 
partition with grub. But doing this corrupted the filesystem. Fortunately, I 
could fix the 
corruption using xfs_recover (but could not boot with that partition even using 
it). I searched 
grub's bugzilla and found out some reports saying that XFS doesn't support 
being used as boot 
partition 
(http://savannah.gnu.org/search/?words=xfs&type_of_search=bugs&group_id=68&Search=Search&exact=1&max_rows=25).
 
Is this true or it's some bug within XFS?
