Cool! let me know if I can be of any help. My cube is right next to the build
master for LVM and GFS. I'd love to help out anyway I can. 

The sys package I used has 0.9.1_beta6 (which is what my kernel was compiled
with) which makes me happy. GFS is taking steps to be as fast as reiser as a
local fs. There are some bad things with 2.4 memory management that cause me
to tell you NOT to include it yet :-) This machine is running GFS on LVM as
root. I am in the process of migrating it to Reiser on LVM under Gentoo.
