Yes, I have intalled them... but, as Akemi Yagi says, XFS is disabled by default on 32 Bits. Now, according to this: " *Yes, you can build your own 32-bit kernel with xfs enabled. However, use xfs on 32-bit systems with caution because xfs has problems with 4K stack size (x86_64 uses 8k stacks). This is the main reason why upstream does not support it. *" It means, for instance, if my hard disk is external (USB 3.0) its lifetime is warning? On Sat, Jun 23, 2012 at 3:59 PM, Steven J.
