If you're looking at the CVS, the instructions in

http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/doc/usage.txt

are the steps you need to take.

To summarise:

use cvs to download latest source.
run configure in the relevant directories - telling it where the kernel source is.
Run make install
Create /etc/cluster/cluster.conf
startup cluster
create filesystems
mount filesystems.

I rebuilt mine a few days ago - from start to finish (including debian sarge install) it was a couple of hours from start to finish.
