ENC: [Ocfs-users] Unresolved Symbols on Uniprocessor Kernel

I followed your instruction to compile OCFS and received the following
errors:

It's the right package but right only for the kernel provided by Redhat...
not for rebuilt kernels.

You'll need to rebuild ocfs too.
1. Untar the module src.
2. ./configure --with-kernel=<path to the kernel src>
3. make KVER=up

And oh, btw, rebuilt modules are not supported.
