kernelΒΆ

This is a rather complex Bundle for the Linux kernel from a system with a history of complexity. There are two kernel versions present on the systems at all times (the current and the previous), so the package names all contain versioning information. This includes kernel-specific modules for various specialties - gm for Myrinet boards, gpfs and pvfs for storage clients, and nvidia modules for machines with Nvidia cards. Note that only the ia32 machines have Nvidia cards in them, and thus those entries only exist in that section.

It is easy to see that there is duplication of effort between the two architectures - both have the same linux package entry names, for example. This Bundle could be arranged in many different ways, some of which might be better than this one. Feel free to hack as needed.
