Description

Hello all,
the wiki-page [1] says that ceph runs under Debian lenny, but as far as I see that is not true because the kernel-module need a function not available in 2.6.26-kernel (see below). Just ask when you need more information.

Sincerly,
DaB.

Unfortunately you're going to need to upgrade your kernel if you want the in-kernel client. Using the backports branches it should work fine on 2.6.27 or later.

However, the userspace tools (all the servers, plus the FUSE-based client) ought to work just fine. That's what the Debian wiki page is talking about. :)

Ok, a backport-kernel works fine AFAIS. I updated the wiki-page.
