hi Johnny,
I  had tried using your bin, both i386 & i686, but still have the same 
problem.
BTW, how could i know what target should i use? i am running on a x86 
platform and i compile the kernel myself and i select the cpu type as 
386 family with no smp support.

the kernel source i downloaded from rpmfind. The version is 
kernel-2.4.21-15.0.3.EL.src.rpm. I used back the kernel config file 
provided from this rpm and changed it to no smp support.

Everything are fine after reboot using this kernel. Then i compile the 
gfs source from your side. The compilation was successful. After 
installation, when i do a depmod -a, it still gave me unresolved symbol 
for gfs modules....

Please help!

Thanks
