Will Lustre soon be available with a different kernel for the .rpm''s??
I see openSUSE 11.1 now and RedHat is in public beta of 5.3 now.? Updated
rpm''s would be ideal from a module compilation perspective.
Recently my experience with some of the newer motherboards on the market has not
been good in relation to configuring ethernet devices.? So far I have purchased
the x2 P5Q motherboards and have continuing problems configuring the atl1e.ko
driver to work with Lustre for CentOS 5.2.?
Also purchased recently x2 P5Q Premium motherboards and now find that I have the
same difficulties with ethernet configuration of the Marvell Technology Group
Ltd. 88E8056 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 12).?
I would imagine a new kernel release is in the works as I have read much of what
is available on the wiki :)? In the end the easiest way for me to work around
the dated kernel ethernet drivers is to simply purchase more ethernet cards that
work with the kernel and in the end that can''t be a bad thing for my
implementation of Lustre and LNET as eventually I will just have more bonded
nics.? Oh I recently found the README.kernel.source so I''ll keep on
working on resolving how to build against the supplied kernel.
