If you have the bandwidth then grab the installer image at 
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/latest/installer/installer/i386/RH7.3-SGI-XFS-1.1.iso
It's *so* much better than the ext_ filesystems in almost every aspect, 
specifically the security of the data. Recovery time from a hard reset 
is usually 1-2 seconds. Seriously. It takes a lot less time to do it 
during the install rather than converting it later.

If you can't grab the image contact me offline. I can burn one for you 
for the price of the blank disc and postage if you so desire. (or 
anybody else for that matter) I also have the RedHat 8.0 image too.
