Hi Andreas,

I believe that (with God's help) i managed to marry xfs & mosix together.

If you have a machine for tests, check out files at:
    ftp://212.160.232.26/pub/linux/mosix/patches-2.4.4-xfs/

You'll find there xfs-changed patches.2.4.4 and kernel.new.2.4.4.tar files
(also gzipped). 'patches.2.4.4' applies to CVS linux-2.4-xfs dated 05/25/01
1400CEST, but i believe that will surely do with current CVS tree.
However I haven't checked yet if it works (i'll try to do it within not more
than 24hrs) - as far it passes ItCompilesForMe(TM) test ;)

I ain't a kernel developer but IMO (read it: as small as my knowledge is)
it should work ;> .

Cheers,
Krzysztof
