    Huh... :( Sorry to bug you guys again...

    I am planning to make a fresh start now as nothing seems to have
    worked for me. If you have any comments/feedback please share them.

    I would like to confirm installation order before I make a fresh
    start. From Arden's experience:
    http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-discuss/2009-June/010710.html
    , the lusre-module is installed last. As I was installing Lustre
    1.8, I was referring 1.8 operations manual
    http://manual.lustre.org/index.php?title=Main_Page . The
    installation order in the manual is different than what Arden has
    suggested.

    Will it make a difference in configuration at later stage? Which
    one should I follow now?
    Any comments?

    Thanks,
    CS.

        Thanks Cliff.

        The depmod -a was successful before as well. I am using CentOS 5.2
        box. Following are the packages installed:
        [r...@localhost tmp]# rpm -qa | grep -i lustre
        lustre-modules-1.8.0-2.6.18_92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.8.0smp
        lustre-1.8.0-2.6.18_92.1.17.el5_lustre.1.8.0smp

        [r...@localhost tmp]# uname -a
        Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.18-92.el5 #1 SMP Tue Jun 10
        18:49:47
        EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

        And here is a output from strace for mount:
        http://www.heypasteit.com/clip/8WT

        Any further debugging hints?

        Thanks,
        CS.
