Running the kernel that SGI supplied on their CD.  Basically it's the Red Hat 
7.1 kernel, which is 2.4.2 plus a whole bunch of patches that Red Hat claims 
"fixes things".

Now I'm a bit nervous to run slashd again. :-)

I guess I should re-compile the kernel with 2.4.5 + CVS XFS.  That could be 
tricky though, and I'm worried about virtual memory problems in later kernels.
