I have a redhad linx5 running under VMWare. I tried to install Lustre 1.8.7
on that linux. I followed their tutorial
http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/lustre-distributed-filesystem?page=0,0
First I installed patched kernel and rebooted to make sure the new kernel
is loaded. Then I started to install other rpms.
I had unknown symbols warnings when installing lustre-modules:
rpm -ivh lustre-modules-1.8.7-2.6.18_194.17.1.el5_lustre.1.8.7.x86_64.rpm

My questions are
1) Can Lustre be installed on a Linux running under a VMWare virtual
machine?
2) If answer of 1) is yes, how to solve my installation problem?
Thanks!
