[Lustre-discuss] sles10: installing module-binaries: "error: Failed dependencies: ksym(panic) .."

[Joe Georger]

Hi all, new to the Lustre, new to the list.  I'm trying to install
lustre-modules-1.6.2-2.6.16_46_0.14_lustre.1.6.2bigsmp.i686.rpm on a 
32-bit SLES10 system and I'm running into this problem as well.  The 
patch referenced below did not help.  I have been unable to download a
working version of SLES10 SP1.  Can anyone offer any assistance?

Thanks,
Joe

Hi,

This ksym stuff is somewhat fixed in SLES 10 SP1  you might just want to
update.  If you don't want to that then attached is a patch that we used
to get around this before.

Hope it helps.

Rene
