XFS Problem

Hi,

I'm having trouble getting some 64-bit kernels to load on my G5.
Whether a kernel boots or not ("Read failed") seems to depend on the
phase of the moon, currently I'm unable to get any new kernel working.

I'm using Debian's 1.3.13-2 yaboot package.  The kernels are on an XFS
file system.

I've rebuilt yaboot with debugging enabled and it looks like the
problem is somewhere in xfs_read_data(): Both for working and failing
kernels xfs_read()/xfs_read_data() get called with the correct
p_filesz.  But for failing kernels read_disk_block() gets called with
a too small value (e.g. 0x471000 instead of 0x569000).

Any ideas?
