 I'm thinking about switching to CentOS 4.4 x86_64 from another RH based

version. However, I need to install it from scratch and I need EVERYTHING (including /boot & /) on XFS file systems. Does the default installer allow this? If not, how difficult would it be to make the necessary changes. I've done a lot of Google searching and searching of the CentOS site, but haven't found an answer anyplace. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It can be done - I've done it, but I had to rebuild the installer.

If you're interested, let me know and I'll put together the details.
