Bug#221132: ITP: kernel-image-2.4.22-xfs -- Linux kernel image for version 2.4.22 w/ XFS support
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

Description : Linux kernel image for version 2.4.22 w/ XFS support
This package is essentially a clone of the existing
kernel-image-2.4.22-i386 package, with the XFS kernel patch from SGI
applied. The primary aim of this package is the creation of kernel
images for an XFS-enabled debian-installer variant for sarge; additional
kernel image packages may be made available in accordance with popular
demand and the limitations of my development environment.
Given the amount of code touched by the XFS patch, I think it would be
inappropriate to include it in our main kernel images prior to upstream
integration, but there is definitely demand for an XFS-enabled
installer; hence this ITP.
