Hi all and
Happy New Year!

I try to install lustre 1.5.95 with vanilla kernel 2.6.18.6
on debian sarge.
I have installed the following patches 
(see mail from Alastair McKinstry  Mon Oct 23 07:20:06 MDT 2006 here)
tasklist_lock.bin
aliasing_workaround.bin
statfs.bin
2.6.18-kern-mount.dpatch
2.6.18_nrpagecache.dpatch

and installed the binary package of e2fsprogs-1.39.cfs2

The kernel is running and I can load the lustre module with
modprobe lustre.

But if I make
mkfs.lustre --fsname=testfs --mdt --mgs /dev/sda2 
I got the following error:
mkfs.lustre: Unable to mount /dev/sda2: No such device
Is the ldiskfs module available?

Indeed ldiskfs does not exists, and the lustre modules are not loaded by mkfs.

Now I don't know where I have to look for the problem. Must the ldiskfs module 
realy exist? 
Or is there a problem with e2fsprogs-1.39.cfs2?
I have tried to compile this package by myself, but not managed it up to now.

Thanks for your help
Harald
