Just what I was looking for

Thanks for the article. I've been working on getting 8.2.5 running on Ubuntu 8.04LTS. What I hadn't done up until now was get the linux source. Whilst DRBD built OK with the headers only and appeared to install, I noticed that

cat /proc/drbd

gave a GIT-hash string which indicated a different version (8.0.11 I think). Although this seemed to communicate OK with a 8.2.5 module on an openSUSE I wanted to make sure the drbd module on Ubuntu was the same version.

Just one slight correction to make. Shouldn't

cp /boot/config-2.6.24-16-server /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24

be

cp /boot/config-2.6.24-16-server /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24/.config

?

When I tried it, make menuconfig complained that .config couldn't be found
