In addition to Ed's kernel debs and the XFS userspace - ie. xfsprogs, xfsdump, attr packages - you'll also want a recent mount package (supports mount by-UUID and mount-by-label for XFS, documents the XFS mount options, no need to use "-t xfs" with mount, etc); and also the latest quota package which supports XFS's notion of journaled quota - which Michael has just uploaded to unstable in the last few days. Hope this helps. cheers. -- Nathan
