hey listers.

I've taken XFS 1.0.1 (the iso image) and placed it over an
otherwise stock RH 7.1 directory tree. I'm doing a kickstart
install from it, and have a bit of a problem. My kickstart
file describes my partitions thusly:

part / --size 350 --onprimary=1
part swap --size 256
part /usr --size 1000 
part /usr/local/net --size 1000 --grow 
part /kickstart --size 2000


when making /usr/local/net, it fails with these errors:

on F1

Error mounting device hda6 as /usr/local/net: Invalid
argument

on F4

XFS bad magic number
XFS SB validate failed

on F5

Illegal value /usr/local/net for -L option
(then the usage statement for mkfs.xfs follows)

It threw similar fits when I tried to put /boot on it's
own partition so I've just put it back into /

thoughts?

Will
