Re: [HPDD-discuss] Question to build lustre from source
I think that even to build the rpms, I have to be in a RedHat or Suse
distribution. I can't do that from any distribution starting from tarball.
At configure time I have this message:
checking for RedHat kernel release number...
checking if Linux kernel was built with CONFIG_SUSE_KERNEL... no
Because I am not in a RedHat distribution there is no way to decide what
patch list to apply.
Question: What you call ldiskfs in reality is ext4 with the patches in the
lustre tarball. Is that right ?

'make rpms' will give you an rpms to install, so you'll need to add rpm
onto your Linux from Scratch.
make install
may be a better choice in your case... And if it is, you probably want
to review and contribute to this issue:
