Hi there,

I'am running CentOS 5.1 on a Dual AMD Opteron QuadCore System, without
major issues so far.

But if I call mcelog I'am getting the message "Cannot open /dev/mcelog"
... because it's not there.

I'am running 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5xen kernel, is this related in any form? I
found something similar for the debian universe:
