I think so, too.  If I need to use truly stable GFS, I probably should
select RHEL4/CentOS4 and released version of GFS.  In that sense, the
stability level which I need now may be a little bit lower. :)

I have no reluctance to select CentOS, but currently I use FC5 and
GFS1 (release 1.03.00).  Updates for FC5 will soon stop, and I heard
FC6 includes GFS(2) in it's kernel and packages.  So, I just tried to
use that GFS2 on FC6, but unfortunately it doesn't has enough
stability in my environment.

Thanks,
Kenji
