Greetings,

I have the following SLES 11 SP0 machine:

# cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep '^model name'
model name      : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244
model name      : AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 244

# cat /etc/SuSE-release

Swap:         2055          0       2055

I downloaded and installed OFED-1.4.1-rc5.tgz on the machine.  I  
configured one of the Mellanox infiniband interfaces and then reboot  
the system.  When installing I chose 2,3:

2) Install OFED Software
3) All packages (all of Basic, HPC)

Upon reboot I see the following messages in the dmesg log:

ib_iser: disagrees about version of symbol ib_fmr_pool_unmap
ib_iser: Unknown symbol ib_fmr_pool_unmap

ib_iser: Unknown symbol ib_dealloc_pd
ib_iser: disagrees about version of symbol ib_fmr_pool_map_phys
ib_iser: Unknown symbol ib_fmr_pool_map_phys

I don't see ib_iser.ko is in the kernel updates directory:
# find  /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates -name '*.ko' | grep iser
#

It looks like the OFED installer isn't building ib_iser.ko even when I  
choose 2,3.

Thanks,
