Do you have a URL to the docs? Do the docs say which version of RHEL you 
need to install?

The Summit kernel was part of RHEL 2.1 (e.g. RHEL 2.1 update 6 came with 
  a package kernel-summit-2.4.9-e.57.i686.rpm). The bits in the kernel 
that made the Summit-class systems (x44[x]) special, were folded into 
the regular kernels in RHEL 3 and onwards

(my guess is those are some really old docs. you won't be running GFS on 
  RHEL 2.1, since that old version of GFS has been withdrawn from 
marketing mid lastyear).
