I'm running RedHat9 plus the RedHat unofficial 2.6.0-test3 kernel right
now with an all XFS system - no modifications, just 'rpmbuild --rebuild
--target athlon ...' then 'rpm -Uvh ...' and the mkinitrd script picked
up the XFS root partition etc without drama.

  http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.5/

It's currently packaged into default kernel+modules (including XFS) and
'unsupported' kernel modules. I guess it might change before RH10(?)
but I don't see why it should...

cheers,
robin
