[Lustre-discuss] newbie Lustre on Ubuntu 10.10

[Donald J. Kolva]

Thanks for the replies.

As a TOTAL newbie to Linux and Lustre, does it go something like this?

1. Download the kernel source for Ubuntu 10.10 (2.6.35-22)
2. Download the lustre source (1.8.6 since it worked for Ubuntu 10.04?)
3. Compile the kernel
4. Install the .deb packages
5. Boot to the new kernel

You can get client RPMs for Ubuntu 10.04 at from the Whamcloud build server:

http://build.whamcloud.com/job/lustre-b1_8/100/

Unfortunately, we don't have the hardware/resources to test this client.

I don't know what kernel is in Ubuntu 10.10, but it is possible to run "make deb" from a Lustre source checkout to try and build packages for your system.
