A heads-up from Daryl. ------- Forwarded Message >To: address@hidden >From: Daryl Herzmann <address@hidden> >Subject: LDM && kernel-2.4.17-xfs >Organization: Iowa State >Keywords: 200202192227.g1JMR6x05782 LDM Linux Hiya, Having trouble with machine crashes on my pals machine, I decided to roll my own kernel. I got vanilla 2.4.17 and applied the SGI XFS patch for XFS filesystems, which I use. I know, I know unsupported combination. Anyway, LDM and this kernel did not get along at all. The base system is RedHat 7.2, which is fully updated as of now. I recompiled LDM as well while on 2.4.17. Here are the errors. These would occur a while after starting LDM.. It would crash LDM and corrupt the queue.

Don't worry too much about my report, I thought that I would just pass along my experience for anyone else that may see this behaviour... I am going to test some more with 2.4.17 vanilla on a spare box and see what happens... Thanks!
