OFED 1.3 does not supports SLES9
If you need this OS you can use OFED 1.2.5.5


That's fair enough.  But why not have the configuration process actually
stop an announce when it detects that it's operating on an unsupported
platform?


You are right,
Vlad - can you fix it

I think it would be better to print a warning, and ask the user if the process 
should continue or not.
In the past I installed OFED 1.0 on Suse Linux 9.3 Professional (an unsupported operating system), and the only change I done was to the installation script, to make it recognize SL 9.3Pro as SLES.
OFED 1.0 (opensm, ipoib, SDP, verbs) then ran without problems.


Actually, it would be much better if the config process stops, prints a warning, print a list of supported operating systems, and then let the user choose which operating system should OFED be compiled for.
