Thanks - I was wondering about the new kernel, since I also plan on
upgrading to the new U3 bits as soon as they are available.  I'll keep
an eye out.  I also hope that in the application I have I wouldn't run
into any of the stack-type issues.  It WILL be an NFS server, but other
than that it would be simple - no LVM, no software RAID, etc. since it
is a simple filesystem on top of a hardware RAID-0 set.
