Thanx Andrew,
Could u provide some details, where can I
obtain 6.0, stable or what ever the updated release is
there for 6.0. The exact ISO download location.
Bcos, I am always confused which one of 6.0 is perfect
or good. If at all I am upgrading, how should I do.
Thanx again for the feedback.
Can I use Raisefs/XFS in Read and Write mode in 6.0
I know I am asking for more.
Cheers,
Deepak Naidu.
