Alex,

what distro are you using? Usually just having the headers isn't enough to get the kmod stuff working. You usually need to a linux build tree with all the scripts built.

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?
