It's in there... I'll admit, I haven't tried it yet.  I did try it
on SuSE 7.1 though... it works there (of course, it was there
in SuSE 6.3).

I know it's at the very earliest stage of release (1.0), but XFS sounds
tons better than Reiser at this point.  Will be neat to see that
in a distribution.  Can't speak too much about JFS at this point.
