Note that if I'm not mistaken Fedora Core 2 has XFS support, you just

I  have already started to download these ISO's, did find old post where
some people did say it was supported but not XFSPROGS, but i have high hopes
:-)

It's all there, it's just if you do an XFS install and xfsprogs is the only package it needs from CD4, at the start it won't say it needs CD4, it will just 'spring that on you' later on when it actually needs CD4 to get the xfsprogs packages off it.

You can also upgrade a RH9+XFS to Fedora 2 WITH OUT any boot options - it detects the existing XFS filesystems and does the right thing. I've done this sucessfully.
