A problem I had was that I didn't have binutils installed (gave an
error about not being able to find nm, but still "installed" the
package); you might make sure you do have binutils, and if not, remove
kmod-drbd83*, install binutils, then reinstall the appropriate kmod(s)
(I believe the -PAE one is the right one for you based on what you
reported later in the thread).

binutils should probably be a Requires: in these kmod rpms?
