[ofa-general] installing ofed-1.4

[Markus Uhlmann]

hello,

i am installing ofed-1.4 (as of 8. jan. 2009) on a 64 bit debian
system. 

after installing a number of rpms without problems, the installation 
discontinues with the following error (from the log file):

--------------------------------------------
Processing files: kernel-ib-1.4-2.6.18_6_amd64
error: File not found: /var/tmp/OFED/lib/modules/2.6.18-6-amd64/updates/kernel/drivers/net/cxgb3
error: File not found: /var/tmp/OFED/lib/modules/2.6.18-6-amd64/updates/kernel/drivers/net/mlx4
--------------------------------------------

these directories were apparently not created during preceeding
installation steps. however, the modules have indeed been built
correctly, here:

/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/ofa_kernel-1.4/lib/modules/2.6.18-6-amd64/extra/drivers/net/cxgb3/

/var/tmp/OFED_topdir/BUILD/ofa_kernel-1.4/lib/modules/2.6.18/extra/drivers/net/mlx4/

(containing kernel modules "cxgb3.ko" and "mlx4_core.ko", "mlx4_en.ko")

there must be some confuson in the install script, or wherever those
paths come from.

is there a way to adjust that?

thanks,

mu

ps: this is near the top of the log-file:
