Do you have CONFIG_LBD (or maye now CONFIG_LBDAF) set on the newer 32-bit kernel? You'll need that. If you do .... file-store is about 2T? What is the filesystem block size? (xfs_info on the mountpoint would tell you) The test is looking at whether the nr of filesystem blocks overflows based on CONFIG_LBD or not... and the function hasn't changed since 2007.... hrm. I'll put my money on CONFIG_LBDAF. -Eric > When running 2.6.28.4 32bit kernel I have no problem with mounting this > filesystem.
