I'm not sure what that would accomplish, except maybe the newer builds
have xfs as an option. That wouldn't matter though, since I did an
upgrade after the install to make sure I have the latest kernel. That
latest kernel (linux-image-2.6.26-1-parisc 2.6.26-11) is seeing the
fatal error mentioned above.
