RHEL 5.2 is running a *really* old kernel (looks like 2.6.18?); I don't know of anybody who's tried to run the in-kernel client on something that old. There's a backports tree at http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client-standalone.git, but it's only good back to 2.6.28 or so. -Greg
