[Ocfs-users] Can't load ocfs on ia64 EL3u3

[Sunil Mushran]

1. You cannot insmod the module. Use load_ocfs.
2. load_ocfs is failing because it looks for the module in 
/lib/modules/2.4.21-20.ELsmp

The ocfs service creates a link in that directory to the module in ABI.

run the service. ensure the link is there.
