I'm very interested in #4 but the doc/usage.txt focuses on GFS2, i don't
see how i could get cvs HEAD GFS1 running with the new architecture ...

I found commented lines in the configure and Makefile, i uncommented
them, after few compile issues against my 2.6.19.2 i get a gfs.ko module

i try to modprobe it and i have those errors : 

gfs: Unknown symbol generic_file_read
gfs: Unknown symbol __generic_file_aio_read
gfs: Unknown symbol gfs2_unmount_lockproto
gfs: Unknown symbol gfs2_withdraw_lockproto
gfs: Unknown symbol generic_file_write_nolock
gfs: Unknown symbol gfs2_mount_lockproto

the problem is that i already modproded dlm and lock_dlm before probing
gfs... (i even probed gfs2 :) )

other problem is : even if i had succeeded in modprobing gfs module,
what do i have to do next ? ccsd -X ; cman_tool join ; groupd ; fenced ;
fence_tool join ; dlm_controld ; gfs_controld ? and using mkfs_gfs,
mount.gfs ...

If someone has already installed GFS1 from CVS HEAD, i'd be glad to see
a quick and dirty howto :)
