[Ocfs2-users] ocfs 2.0 for upcoming redhat4 update2 beta

There is a prebuilt and supported ocfs-2 rpm for Kernel 2.6.9-11.ELsmp
(Redhat 4.0 U1 - 64 Bit AMD64/EM64T Kernel)
Unfortunately at that RH4U1 Version iscsi is not working nor supported.
So for iscsi i use 2.6.9-17.ELsmp (from Redhat Network Beta Kernel of
upcomming RHEL4U2). With that iscsi works fine, but when i try to
install
the ocfs-2 rpm i get:

[root at magellanic ocfs]# rpm -ivh
ocfs2-2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.ELsmp-1.0.4-1.x86_64.rpm 
error: Failed dependencies:
        kernel-smp = 2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.EL is needed by
ocfs2-2.6.9-11.0.0.10.3.ELsmp-1.0.4-1.x86_64

So the ocfs rpm wants to have the original RH4U1 Kernel.

Any ideas how tho use ocfs2 on that beta Kernel from Redhat (of course
not
for production, only testing puposes)
