Hello all,

I'm trying to hack an XFS Debian potato install and I
have gotten pretty far but have ran into a wall.

My partitions are set up with cfdisk as follows:

/dev/hda (boot flag set primary) /boot
/dev/hda5 (logical) /
/dev/hda6 (logical) /swap
/dev/hda7 (logical) /var


when I run mkfs.xfs on /dev/hda I get some strange
results


One question . . . you did mean /dev/hda1, didn't you??

/dev/hda is the disk and /dev/hda1 is the first partition.
