My kernel does have XFS and I believe LVM.  I need to find out about 
versions.  This kernel is built by a Kernel person from SuSE and is not a 
fully supported release, however, it was just released the other day.  Maybe 
I'm lucky and have latest and greatest LVM/XFS?  I've never patched a kernel 
before, however, I have built several.
