Dear Pathak,
According to this email we should be able to make version 6.0.1 work for any distro. But SUSE is supported in oscar5.1 beta!

Allan,

I worked on a new tool, oscar-packager, that allows you to do that easily. The 
tool is not quite stable yet but if you want to play with it, the source code 
is available here (under SVN): 
http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/svn/oscar/pkgsrc/oscar-packager/trunk
I think you should be able to create RPM at least for the OSCAR core. Note that 
this tool is based on scripts other OSCAR developers did in the past, i just 
extended and integrated them. Ultimately, my goal is to have a single tool to 
package OSCAR on any Linux distribution, hiding the different binary package 
formats and their associated tool.

If you decide to do so, let me know, i still have few stuff to check in. A good starting 
point is to read the very brief man page (man oscar-packager). To install the tool, the 
only solution is currently to check out the source code from the SVN repository and then 
to execute as root "make install". You will also need the OSCAR Perl modules 
(oscar-base-lib) available via our repositories or via trunk.

I hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions. Also, when oscar-6.0.1, i plan on finalizing the tool and release it. Then, some more detailed documentation will be available.

Thanks,

    Hi All,
      Is it possible at this point to "build" support for other distros
    suchas x86_64 fedora core 10 in OSCAR 6.0.1?
    If you give me the the pointers and help i do not mind helping out.
    Thank you very much for OSCAR!
    OSCAR ON!
    Best wishes,
    Allan Menezes
