GFS 6.0.x is based on Red Hat Enterprise 3 (2.4.x kernels), not
Enterprise 4 (2.6.x kernels).  I don't know if GFS is yet available for
Enterprise 4.  The CVS (development) code should work on EL4 (2.6.10.x
kernel), but it is "a work in progress".  I use it on Fedora Core 3
(also a 2.6.10.x kernel).
