I anm trying to enable XFS with no success. I followed the instructions provided in http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories/CentOSPlus I installed the new kernel. Example: 2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.centos.plus
I also installed these packages as described in a post I found yum install --enablerepo=centosplus xfsprogs xfsprogs-devel
1) you don't need the centosplus kernel use the normal one 2) you do need the kmod-xfs package (the xfs module) and xfsprogs 3) all this from extras not centosplus
lsmod shows nothing about XFS
xfs is only loaded if you do either "modprobe xfs" or if you try to mount an xfs filesystem.
