Hi.
I found this cached in google:
"The initial release of CentOS 4 does not include iSCSI software initiator or target support. Support for iSCSI is being evaluated for addition in a future update to CentOS 4."
What is the status on iSCSI for CentOS 4.1? I've tried to install it using yum but cannot seem to get the appropriate package names.. And the above note suggests that they may not even be available.
How do I get iSCSI support on 4.1? Can I use the 3.1 package or?
Many thanks.
Morten

It'll be there with CentOS-4.2, so a little patience.
I've been using it since the beta SRPMS got 'out there' and it has been working pretty good.

Okay. I need to install it on 4.1 though, we're installing an iSCSI RAID solution these days and cannot wait for 4.2. I guess compiling from source is what I need to do.

Hopefully by "compiling from source" you mean downloading SRPM packages from 4.2beta and rebuilding them using rpmbuild command?

Actually, I got the source from the linux-iscsi.sf.net site and I'm having "great fun" trying to compile it... ;-)
I'll try your advice now, thanks.
