[Linux-cluster] Unable to mount GFS File System in RHEL5.2 (32bit)

[Kaerka Phillips]

It looks like there is a mix between the gfs and gfs2 filesystem and modules
on your system -- your loaded module is GFS2, so perhaps try mounting with
"-t gfs2", except that you will need to have made the filesystem with GFS2
as well.  All of my mounted GFS2 filesystems show "gfs2" as the FS type
currently mounted.

You may want to remove all of the GFS items, and leave the GFS2 components
(since that is the supported FS)

On a RHEL5.3 system with only GFS2:
# lsmod |grep gfs
gfs2                  524204  12 lock_dlm

On a RHEL5.3 system with GFS2 only (64bit system):
# modinfo gfs2

On a RHEL5.2 system with GFS2:
