I also have 2 ntfs partiotions that i need to access. I dont think statndard kernel will support them. Is there any other way of adding xfs support to plus kernel.

Hi, I installed kernel version 2.6.9-42.0.2.plus.c4 a few days ago

plus kernel supposed to have support for xfs and ntfs etc.
xfs is now only available as an additional rpm, which can be used
with
either the plus or the distro kernel
The file you are looking for is in:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/i386/RPMS/
(or substitute x86_64 for i386)
and named: kernel-module-xfs-2.6.9-42.0.2.plus.c4-0.1-3.?????.rpm
I installed kernel-module-xfs-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL-0.1-3.i686.rpm from the
site
you mentioned . But it is still unable to mount xfs filesystem at boot time.It gives following error.
mount: fs type xfs not supported by kernel
after booting up in 2.6.9-42.0.2.plus.c4 if i issue command "modprobe
xfs"
it gives an error about module not found.But following files are present
on
system.
/lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.EL/extra/xfs.ko /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.2.EL/extra/xfs_quota.ko
You will notice that 2.6.9-42.0.2.plus.c4 is not the same as 2.6.9-42.0.2.
If all you needed the plus kernel for was xfs, then I would recommend you use the standard kernel alongside the standard-kernel-xfs-module package you already have installed.
