Lustre discuss - Dec 2007 - Problems building lustre 1.6.3 with 2.6.18.x vanilla kernel

I''ve patched kernel 2.6.18 with quilt, as described at [1] with both
ldiskfs and lustre kernel_patches (and removed .pc, patches & series
files).

Now when I try to build lustre-1.6.3 while running patched kernel
2.6.18.8 like:
 ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-linux=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/source
 make

I get the following error (full log available at [2]):
 [..]
 cd linux-stage && quilt push -a

(modified autoMakefile.in to use quilt without "Quiet operation"
option)

Looks like the source already has some patches applied and build
system still wants to patch it.

Can anyone give a hint on fixing this issue?

Don''t apply the ldiskfs series to your kernel before you build it.  The
lustre build system applies the ldiskfs patches during the ldiskfs
build.

Hello, Brian.

Thanks a lot. I should believe the documentation even if it looks a
little outdated.
