A couple of weeks ago it was mentioned that btrfs in the stand alone tree would be patched to support 2.6.27 with older versions coming after. Has anyone actually done these patches? I''d like to get btrfs running on 2.6.26(Debian Lenny kernel) and if no one has done any code towards it I''d be happy to do it.

For the most part this should just be digging out the commits that dropped the compat code and adding them back. -chris -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
