How to mount SGI XFS on Linux Box

RE: How to mount SGI XFS on Linux Box
I'm pretty sure Linux only ever had support for what IRIX calls the v2 on-disk format. This became the default around IRIX 6.5.14, but it was possible with earlier 6.5.x to create a v2 XFS disk using command line switches. So if your disk was created in IRIX 6.2 or an earlier 6.5 version, chances are Linux won't read it.

Linux XFS changed the on-disk format a couple more times, I believe they're up to v5 now. I don't know what was removed over the years from the Linux XFS code.
