1. System Requirements
The following distributions of Linux are supported by the Emulex
LPFC driver:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (SP1 or higher)
1.1 Red Hat Enterprise Linux 'kernel-devel' Package Requirement
For Red Hat Enterprise Linux installations, the -devel package
which matches the kernel package with the same version as the
currently running kernel must be installed for the LPFC driver
build to succeed. For example, a system with the 2.6.18-7 kernel
would need the kernel-devel-2.6.18-7 package.
1.2 SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 'kernel-source' Package Requirement
For SuSE Linux Enterprise Server installations, the kernel-source
package with the same version as the currently running kernel must
be installed for the LPFC driver build to succeed. For example, a
system with the 2.6.16.46-0.7-bigsmp kernel would need the
kernel-source-2.6.16.46-0.7 package.
