Re: Corrupted file on iso installer image of XFS 1.2

[Jenny Williams <jenny_williams@xxxxxxx>]

Might that re-spin be undertaken, or are you guys going to let it be the 
way it is?  I figure that if the functionality changed from one iso image 
to the next it might be an issue for people.  Please know I ask this with 
the full understanding that you guys spin these RedHat specific files above 
and beyond the call.
