Sooo, I grabbed the latest 1.2 tar from
and untarred it onto my Debian 4.0 with 2.6.21.1 kernel from kernel.org, did
./install.sh and a bunch of stuff like this flew past:
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 77: rpm: command not found
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 78: rpm: command not found
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 79: rpm: command not found
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 319: rpm: command not found
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 320: rpm: command not found
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 321: rpm: command not found
/root/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600/build_env.sh: line 327: rpm: command not found
I still got the menu, from which I selected (IIRC) 2, selected the basic OFED
bits (option 1) at which point it said:
Below is the list of OFED packages that you have chosen
(some may have been added by the installer due to package dependencies):
ib_ipoib
ib_mthca
ib_verbs
kernel-ib
kernel-ib-devel
libcxgb3
libcxgb3-devel
libibcm
libibcm-devel
libibverbs
libibverbs-devel
libibverbs-utils
libmthca
libmthca-devel
librdmacm
mstflint
perftest
ofed-docs
ofed-scripts
ERROR: The gcc package is required to run libibverbs
now, there _is_ a gcc installed, it was used to build the kernel I'm running:
hpcpc106:~/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600# which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
hpcpc106:~/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600# gcc -v

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)
I sthe script perhaps getting confused and thinking this is RHEL or something,
or in using a Debian system am I going beyond what is "supported" and/or "known
to work?" The readme's which came along with the bits don't seem to say much
about Debian, just RedHat and SuSE
hpcpc106:~/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600# uname -a
Linux hpcpc106 2.6.21.1-raj #1 SMP Tue May 1 13:57:28 PDT 2007 ia64 GNU/Linux
hpcpc106:~/OFED-1.2-20070502-0600#
should I be taking a different path to build here?
