[Ocfs2-users] Problems building ocfs2 rpm on Fedora 9

Fri Jun 27 13:56:55 PDT 2008

ocfs2 fs module is shipped with the kernel. So no need to worry there.

$ find /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name \*ocfs2\*
Should return you 4 modules... fs, dlm, nm and userdlm.

The ocfs2-tools rpm should be available tomorrow for download.
Fingers crossed.
