Let me put a plug in for Scientific Linux. Releases will have security updates for 3 years https://www.scientificlinux.org/about/future SL 4 is in beta, and will be released imminently. You get XFS by installing an alternate kernel (provided in contrib) (We were looking at distribution lifecycle times yesterday in fact, for a tender response. If I'm not wrong, Redhat say 7 years for RHEL, and SuSE say 5)
