At this point, you need to  verify your installation actually worked, and
kernel deps are correct.
Also be sure the running kernel matches the version of lustre-client-modules
you installed
(2.6.16_60_0.69.1, from your above i think)
Run
# modprobe -v lustre
And you should have an error in syslog that will help.
Haven't seen this in awhile, but if the lustre modules are in the proper
directory under /lib/modules
for your running kernel, you might  need 'depmod -a'
