| 553 | === Centos Revisited === |
| 554 | |
| 555 | ==== 2/22/10 ==== |
| 556 | |
| 557 | The ubuntu experiment is failing terribly. The NF2 modules are throwing errors left and right about dma timeouts, and buffer overruns. |
| 558 | James is attempting to build the openflow switch on the Centos Refrence installations that came with the the Tyan boxes from the reference vendor. |
| 559 | |
| 560 | The vendor already ran |
| 561 | {{{ |
| 562 | yum install netfpga-base |
| 563 | }}} |
| 564 | |
| 565 | From the factory the netfpga packages that were installed are as follows: |
| 566 | {{{ |
| 567 | netfpga-base.i386 2.0.0-beta installed |
| 568 | netfpga-kernel.i386 2.0.0-beta installed |
| 569 | netfpga-repo.noarch 1-1_CentOS5 installed |
| 570 | netfpga-utils.i386 2.0.0-beta installed |
| 571 | netfpga_lib.i386 1.1-2 installed |
| 572 | }}} |
| 573 | |
| 574 | James added one additional package to their installation |
| 575 | {{{ |
| 576 | netfpga-openflow_switch.i386 0_9_0-1 installed |
| 577 | }}} |
| 578 | |
| 579 | This mostly populates the /root/NF2/projects/openflow subdir with stuff from the yum repository. |
| 580 | |
| 581 | |
| 582 | In order to build the openflow modules, James needs autoconf which comes from the package |
| 583 | {{{ |
| 584 | autoconf.noarch 2.59-12 installed |
| 585 | }}} |
