Hi there,

I am trying to install a patchless Lustre client on a CentOS 5.2 system from 
RPM. I downloaded the following two RPMs:
    *  lustre-client-1.6.7-2.6.18_92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7smp.i686.rpm
    * lustre-client-modules-1.6.7-2.6.18_92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.6.7smp.i686.rpm 

However, the kernel of my system is slightly different: 2.6.18-92.e15.
Therefore, the installed modules are located in a different directory in 
/lib/modules to the system kernel. I manually created symbolic links of the fs 
and net directories into the system kernel directory. However, I am still not 
able to load the lustre modules.  Note that the files at the top directory such 
as modules.dep are not copied.

The whole problem comes from the slight difference between the versions of the 
kernel and the modules. I am wondering if there is a simple way to get the 
modules loaded without installing a new kernel.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Shi Jin
