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?

Does "modprobe ldiskfs" work? _______________________________________________ Lustre-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.clusterfs.com/mailman/listinfo/lustre-discuss
