Its a little complicated... perhaps I didn't explain it well enough. There are two flavors (one old, one new) of the OCFS2/userspace integration. The old flavor is only available in SLES10 and won't be appearing upstream. The second flavor is the new stuff we're working on and is available to anyone with 2.6.26 or later (eg openSUSE11.1 or SLES11 when they come out). This is what the packages I linked to are for. The only real trick is getting a sufficiently new kernel onto an existing distro to use the userspace packages with. This is why I suggested starting with openSUSE 11.0 and adding the KOTD and other prerequisites from "Factory" (since thats what I did too). > I would love to support the Novell team with SLES for their great support > here, but if this gets even more difficult... :( > > Thanks, > Christian > _______________________________________________ > Linux-HA mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha > See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems > _______________________________________________ Linux-HA mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha See also: http://linux-ha.org/ReportingProblems
