Is the NEW & IMPROVED installer, install.pl, a drop in replacement for
build.sh?

I recently wrote a set of build scripts that are used to build a
distribution (kernel + modules + root file system) for deployment
elsewhere. (i.e. a non-native build of everything including OFED).

In the OFED 1.2 installer, I used this method of invocation:

/build.sh -c

wherein, build.sh locates the config file, "ofed.conf" in the same
directory. That worked.

The statement about "run on all cluster nodes" appears to indicate a
non-native build is no-longer possible.

The build.sh was removed from OFED 1.3 and it is explianed in the RN:
   2.2 Package and install
       o There is a new install script. See OFED_Installation_Guide.txt for
         more details on the new installation and build procedures.
o User space packages are now in different source RPMs (as opposed to
         one source RPM in previous OFED releases).
o The option for a build without installing is not supported any more.
       o Added the script make-dist to generate tarball with kernel sources
         for each kernel.
