Hello,
I'm still trying to figure out what the source of my problem is;

Anyway, what is the recommended compiler for XFS 1.2? Up to 1.1, I've
read that SGI developer team recommends kgcc in the Makefile, I don't
see that sort of NOTE in the Makefile in kernel
2.4.18-18SGI_XFS_1.2pre5.
I build my kernels with gcc-2.96 these days which seem to do fine. The
kgcc was mainly needed in the pre 11 releases.
A lot of people use the (updated!) 2.96 which seems to work fairly well.
For the past few months, I have been building systems with the latest
XFS from CVS using GCC 3.2... I have yet to run into a problem that
was due to the compiler. The systems are all over the map, from dual
Xeon servers with lots of disk to PIII-M laptops to Athelon workstations
to even a 486 "honey pot" machine. All are running XFS as their only
filesystem (modulo ISO-9660 and NFS) and some have been very heavily
used.
I just wish we had our big cluster running this stuff yet. However,
our product plans had to slow down due to resources...
