Hi, I have a custom kernel (2.6.21) with some nfs stuff modified. I know how to build and install the kernel on a single machine. However, I was trying to find the best way to install it on multiple nodes. One of the obvious ways is to make rpm packages and use them ( The nodes i'm trying to install the kernel run Redhat enterprise edition 5). I was trying to make rpms for the kernel packages using instructions on this link "http://grid-it.cnaf.infn.it/index.php?rpmbuild&type=1". However, that didn't go so well cuz it required a config_smp to be present, which i did not have on the RHEL 5 i was working on. Also, once the build is done, Is it possible to migrate the modules and the bzImage's on to other machines without building it on each node individually? Any pointers on how to build an rpm out of a custom kernel? Thanks, -Vinay -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
