We have a number of different options:
The source patch is actually probably the easiest way to start, unless you
know how to use cvs.
The patch will apply cleanly to a 2.4.0-test1 kernel from ftp.xx.kernel.org
(replace xx with your country, there is a ftp.tw.kernel.org). Unpack the
2.4.0-test1 kernel and apply the patch.
The base patch is at:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/xfs/ftpdir/06192000linux-2.4-test1-linux-2.4-xfs
.patch.gz
This patch will also give you cvs files so that a cvs update can be used to
keep
you upto date with developments:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/xfs/ftpdir/06192000linux-2.4-test1-linux-2.4-xfs
-cvs.patch.gz
There is also an iso image on the web site, this contains kernel and command
RPMs + source RPMS:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/www/projects/xfs/ftpdir/ProPack1.4.iso
Howver, this is not for those with a slow link to the internet.
The recommended method remains to follow the CVS tree, for instructions
see
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/cvs_download.html
I suspect we will soon be providing smaller patches which make things like
the kdb debugger optional.
