Success getting files off SGI XFS-formatted disks using "modern" hardware

RE: Success getting files off SGI XFS-formatted disks using "modern" hardware
Turns out the very early version of Ubuntu don't support this. There are a few "expert" install options that you can fiddle with, but the core OS includes gnome and there is no way to preemptively remove it.

So, I did a but more digging and found that OpenSUSE 10.3 (still available here: https://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/discon...o/torrent/) has similar versions of xfsprogs and xfsdump, so I gave it a shot. I'm much less familiar with SUSE, but I managed to get a working minimal install that I tested against one of my SGI image files.

The entire VM .ova file is right at 200MB. Happy to share if someone has hosting suggestions.
