I'm using an xfsdump piped to an xfsrestore to copy files from my root
partition to a logical volume (as part of a convoluted script I'm using
after Kickstart, since RedHat doesn't include LVM support in their
installer).  One thing I noticed, though, is that the setuid and setgid
bits aren't preserved on the restored files.  Is there any way around
this?

Thanks,
