In-Reply-To: Message-ID: X-S: Always MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-linux-xfs@oss.sgi.com Precedence: bulk There are patches on the oss.sgi.com ftp server for newer kernels.

Recently, Russell Cattelan (I think) announced that he had built some kernel RPMs for the Red Hat Rawhide kernels as well.
