<DIV>I was able to get the source code for ocfs2 and compile it. This worked and
created the necessary .ko files</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Now I have to figure out why gnu parted 1.6.15 has bugs. when I try a
partprobe on a partitioned firewire maxtor drive<BR>mount -t ocfs2 /dev/sdb1
/u01/oradata/orcl<BR><BR>It says no such device....<BR>Any ideas
anyone?...</DIV>
