[openib-general] RHEL4ASU3 question

Currently we do not have RHEL4U3 installed on any machine. We are
installing those and will get back to you. We have plenty of machines
with RHEL4U2 and OpenIB (1.0 branch) seems to work just fine with them.

Just a question, when you compiled MVAPICH, did you choose the DDR
option when prompted by make.mvapich.gen2?

Oh yes, another question. Is this reproducible with OpenIB built from
the 1.0 branch or trunk instead of the stock RedHat RPM?

Thanks,
Sayantan.
