Re: XFS and kernel 2.4.18

["James A Goodwin" <jagoodwi@us.ibm.com>]

We are going to release a product that will have a certain release of XFS
as a prerequisite, so we have to support a fixed version.  As far as I can
tell, 1.0.2 is the latest release, so we're going with it.  If that
dictates that we have to stay with kernel 2.4.14, so be it.  If not, I'd
really like to move on up to 2.4.18.

So, I guess my real questions are:

      a) Is 1.0.2 that latest release of XFS?
      b) What is the latest kernel that I can use with the latest XFS
release?
      c) If it's not kernel 2.4.14, then how to I upgrade?

Thanks,

Money? ;-)

You really want the old code base?
