[DRBD-user] DRBD 8.0.5 Installation in RHEL 5

Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


Another way to do this:

Install 'rpm-build' and 'redhat-rpm-config', grab CentOS 5 extras source package for drbd:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.0/extras/SRPMS/drbd-8.0.4-1.el5.centos.src.rpm

and

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.0/extras/SRPMS/drbd-kmod-8.0.4-1.2.6.18_8.1.8.el5.src.rpm

Install them, then you can just do an rpmbuild for each new kernel you need them for and
have a nice clean build with RPMs to manage.

You could also have a go at getting a .spec file together for version 8.0.5, I believe there
is a .spec file skeleton in the standard distribution...
