Are there any talks with SGI to incorporate the XFS patches into the main kernel? Got some problems here with non-standard kernels like 2.4.20pre8ac3 and such.

Have you tried Sgi's CVS tree? I've been running it for quite awhile with no problems whatsoever.

problems whatsoever.

Returns hundreds of "can't find file to patch" errors. My skills won't let me
figure out what's going on there unfortunately. I could have skipped patches
in the Documentation dir, but sure not in ./linux/Makefile

Thx for the hint anyway.

Did you follow the instructions exactly as detailed on SGI's oss XFS site?

XFS was merged in 2.5.36.

No idea if/when it will be merged in to 2.4.x.
