[Lustre-discuss] Rebuilding kernel rpms

Hi,

I am using the rocks distribution, which does not allow to mix 32bit and
64bit systems. So it's either all 64bit or none, and I am quite hesitant
to make the switch (we have no requirement for 64bit from the cluster
users). Anyways, I need to apply other patches as well (network card
driver, which can be installed as RPM as well but is a pain).

Cheers,
Arne
