Hi All, after looking around for info on XFS(the filesystem) and its use on CentOS and/or RHEL 4. There seems to be a lot of noise about 4K Stacks (especially on linux-xfs at oss.sgi.com). So what is the best way to get XFS working with CentOS 4.3 ? And not have something like this happening.

Do I need a kernel with 8K stacks? and is this http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/testing/i386/RPMS/kernel-module-xfs-2.6.9-34.ELsmp-0.1-3.i686.rpm the "kernel-module-xfs" RPM he was talking about (or equivalent for `uname -r` equals 2.6.9-34.ELsmp).
