Greetings all,

        I have XFS for a short time now, and just got around to making back ups 
of all my data.  I finally have a 10gb filesystem (over several partitions) for 
XFS, made all the filesystems, and went to boot....and it wouldn't mount the 
XFS / partition. left me with the generic:

        Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:45

        I read on the FAQ that LILO now works with XFS (or vice-versa :) and I 
searched the mailing lsit archives and only found old things about trying to 
get  root XFS to mount, then later, issues with it being buggy...but I didn't 
see anything about how to get XFS / to work (what does  "Could be easier", from 
the FAQ,  mean, anyways? :)
        Can anyone shed some light on this?  I would *love* to get this 
working, thanks for your time.

        RegEx/Jason Walker
