Thanks for the response Wendy, but, I couldnt find an RPMS dir anywhere under ftp.redhat.com:/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/4/en/RHCS/i386/SRPMS ftp.redhat.com:/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/4/en/RHGFS/i386/SRPMS ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/4ES/en/RHGFS/SRPMS/ but I did find.. http://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cluster/2005-October/msg00076.html and that got me farther.. right now, im stuck at [root@tf1 rpms]# sudo rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/GFS-kernel.spec error: Architecture is not included: i386 [root@tf1 rpms]# sudo rpmbuild -bb --target=i686 /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/GFS-kernel.spec Building target platforms: i686 Building for target i686 error: Failed build dependencies: dlm-devel is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 dlm-kernheaders is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 kernel-devel = 2.6.9-34.EL is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 kernel-smp-devel = 2.6.9-34.EL is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 kernel-hugemem-devel = 2.6.9-34.EL is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 dlm-kernel is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 dlm-kernel-smp is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 dlm-kernel-hugemem is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 dlm-kernheaders >= 2.6.9 is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 cman-kernheaders >= 2.6.9 is needed by GFS-kernel-2.6.9-49.1.i686 [root@tf1 rpms]# so i did [root@tf1 SPECS]# sudo rpmbuild -bb --target=i686 cman-kernel.spec Building target platforms: i686 Building for target i686 error: Failed build dependencies: kernel-smp = 2.6.9-11.EL is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0.i686 kernel-hugemem = 2.6.9-11.EL is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0.i686 kernel-devel = 2.6.9-11.EL is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0.i686 kernel-smp-devel = 2.6.9-11.EL is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0.i686 kernel-hugemem-devel = 2.6.9-11.EL is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0.i686 fake-build-provides is needed by cman-kernel-2.6.9-36.0.i686 [root@tf1 SPECS]# so I guess I need to edit the spec file and set the extraversion to 2.6.9-34 and I cant seem to find where to find a redhat version of fake-build-provides.. I have to use the one from CENTOS ? ;) http://rpm.karan.org/el4/csgfs/SRPMS/fake-build-provides-1.0-20.src.rpm regards, Jason -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
