ENC: ENC: [Ocfs-users] Unresolved Symbols on Uniprocessor Ker nel

Fri May 7 11:22:15 CDT 2004

Hi,

Is this "Unresolved Symbols" issue only occurring on VMware with e.38?
We have OCFS users want to update their kernel to e.34 or e.38 without
VMware.

Please advise, Thanks!

yes the best thing is to install the i686 kernel on amd boxes
, it works just fine, the difference is negligable and makes life a lot
easier
