[PVFS-users] Re: pvfs

[Phil Carns]

I've seen this error before on the Argonne systems but I never found out
what the problem was before they went to a new kernel version and it went
away.  It occured in that case on a 2.2.15pre? kernel, and the suspected
cause was either a particular raid or memory patch.  If you have applied
any unusual patches to your source tree you may want to try compiling
without them to see if that resolves the conflict.
