* On-disk compatibility with IRIX XFS file systems
A complete toolset including:
* dump/restore support including all XFS file system features such as ACLs and quotas

The SGI XFS team is also providing a modified Red Hat Linux anaconda based installer.

entirely on XFS, or a combination of XFS and ext2 file systems.
Sincerely
The SGI XFS Team.
