[ewg] FW: OFED 1.2 rc1 release

[Sharma, Karun]

Hi:
 
After installing OFED 1.2 RC1, I can see "uninstall.sh" in "/usr". "ofed_uninstall.sh" is also there under "/usr/sbin". 
 
One more thing which is not mentioned in release notes is that libsdp.conf has been moved to /etc. If the "stack_prefix" is /usr, then "libsdp.conf" should be present at "/usr/etc".
 
Thanks
Karun

Main changes from OFED-1.1-alpha:

      - uninstall.sh script renamed and replaced: <prefix>/sbin/ofed_uninstall.sh 
      - BUILD_ID is part of <prefix>/bin/ofed_info script 
   2. Fixed 57 bugs (see attachment for all bugs fixed)
