Synopsis:	Low: GFS bug-fix update
Issue date:	2009-01-29

These updated GFS packages are in sync with the latest kernel
(2.4.21-58.EL). The modules in earlier GFS packages fail to load because
they do not match the running kernel. It is possible to force-load the
modules; however, with this update, force-loading the modules is not
required.

SL 3.0.x

 SRPMS:
GFS-6.0.2.36-9.src.rpm
 i386:
GFS-6.0.2.36-9.i386.rpm
GFS-devel-6.0.2.36-9.i386.rpm
GFS-modules-6.0.2.36-9.i386.rpm
 x86_64:
GFS-6.0.2.36-9.x86_64.rpm
