Hello all!

I'm in a group working on a cluster, and we've been trying out PVFS, hoping
it'll help with our I/O bottleneck. We want to use the system calls instead
of the pvfs2-x equivalents, so from what I understood of the quickstart
guide, configuring the kernel interface was the way to go.

Not having a folder /usr/src/linux-2.6.0, I checked my version with `uname
-r` and used that instead, and it seemed to do the "./configure
--with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-16-generic/" fine... only
there's a number of errors when subsequently attempting to do "make kmod".

What's more, figuring that I had got the version wrong (there being two
folders in /usr/src) I went to try ./configure with the other, but got a
message "configure: error: The kernel source tree must have been
configured."
Now the bad part: I did a "make clean". I can still use the normal configure
and make commands fine, but configuring --with-kernel still doesn't work,
and make kmod says "make: *** No rule to make target `kmod'.  Stop."
So I've got myself badly stuck.

We *could* work with calling the pvfs2-x equivalents it in our code, but I
at least want to fix what I broke...
Can anyone help?
