Hi,
I'm trying to bring up Lustre 1.6.0.1 on RHEL4 U4 using the downloaded
rpms, but the mkfs.lustre command keeps failing (see below). Evidently
it cannot find ldiskfs (the /dev/hdc1 shows up in fdisk as a valid Linux
83 partition). The manual/archives don't seem to have much on this --
any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Ed Nadolski
