[Gluster-users] Gluster crashing system

[Renee Beckloff]

Please keep in mind  that we are not testing / supporting Glusterfs with
32bit server instances.  While it may work, we can't guarantee results or
performance.

I will check on the other issues surrounding the bug noted below.

Thanks
Renee

Sorry for my rushed reply...

The PPA is for Lucid regarding this bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glusterfs/+bug/577216

The PPA is to be found here:
https://launchpad.net/~giovanni.toraldo/+archive/ppa

Lucid uses glusterfs 3.0.2 but has been confusingly marked as fixed
but will not fix in Lucid and Maverick.

I managed to build and test glusterfs 3.1 in Ubuntu Lucid 32bit but
have no idea how versions will perform in Hardy.
