-Lustre can currently build against Red Hat 2.4 and SuSE 2.6
-kernel-source RPMs. All other kernel-source RPMs are *unsupported* at
-this time.
-
-Note that a Lustre-patched kernel is required for building Lustre; in
-most cases a kernel-source RPM from your Linux vendor will not contain
-the necessary patches.
-

-## Instructions for Red Hat 2.4.x kernel-source RPMs
-##
-
-1. kernel.h
-
-Building against a kernel-source RPM requires a special header. On
-Red Hat systems, this file should be automatically created at boot
-time, and saved in /boot/kernel.h.
-
- *** If you are not running Red Hat Linux, or are not booted into the
- *** kernel you are trying to build against, you need to create this
- *** file manually.
-
- *** If you do not, the Lustre build may fail, or may fail to build
- *** modules that work with your kernel.
-
-Here is an example /boot/kernel.h file. If you are building on
-x86_64, the first defines should be __MODULE_KERNEL_x86_64, etc. The
-other defines should be simple to figure out.
-
-/* This file is automatically generated at boot time. */
-#ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_H_
-#define __BOOT_KERNEL_H_
-
-/* Kernel type i686-smp */
-
-#ifndef __MODULE_KERNEL_i686
-#define __MODULE_KERNEL_i686 1
-#endif
-
-#ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_ENTERPRISE
-#define __BOOT_KERNEL_ENTERPRISE 0
-#endif
-
-#ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_BIGMEM
-#define __BOOT_KERNEL_BIGMEM 0
-#endif
-
-#ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_HUGEMEM
-#define __BOOT_KERNEL_HUGEMEM 0
-#endif
-
-#ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_SMP
-#define __BOOT_KERNEL_SMP 1
-#endif
-
-#ifndef __BOOT_KERNEL_UP
-#define __BOOT_KERNEL_UP 0
-#endif

-You should save this somewhere, and pass the location of this file to
-./configure using the --with-kernel-source-header option.
-
-2. .config
-
-You will also need to tell Lustre about the .config file for your
-kernel. The two likely locations of this file are
-/boot/config-$(uname -r), and /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs/. You should
-pass the location of this file to Lustre using the --with-linux-config
-option.
-
-3. An Example
-
-Here is an example for configuring Lustre:
-
-./configure --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-28.9_lustre.1.0.3 \
---with-kernel-source-header=/boot/kernel.h \
---with-linux-config=/boot/config-2.4.20-28.9_lustre.1.0.3smp
-
-##
-## Instructions for SuSE 2.6.x kernel-source RPMs
-##
-
-1. kernel-syms
-
-In addition to the kernel-source rpm, you may need to install a
-kernel-syms rpm. This should be included where you got your kernel
-rpm.
-
-2. linux-obj
-
-You will need to choose the correct linux-obj directory for your
-machine. They will be located in /usr/src/linux-$(uname
--r)-obj/$ARCH/$FLAVOR. Lustre should be configured with the
---with-linux-obj option.
-
-3. Example
-
-Here is an example for configuring Lustre:
-
-./configure --with-linux=/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97 \
---with-linux-obj=/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.97-obj/ppc64/pseries64
