Hi,
Thought I'd provide a little more info. for users out there.
>From <errno.h>:
#define ENOSYS 38 /* Function not implemented */
Basically, as Steve Lord pointed out in an earlier email, the
following option listed under the XFS config options menu:
"Use kiobuf for XFS I/O"
should be turned off, if you're using an IDE drive (or LVM/MD).
This option only works for SCSI drives currently.
Yes, work is underway to support this option for other non-SCSI
devices as well.
Cheers,
-Chait.
