I use make-kpkg nowadays, but I guess that's just because I'm
comfortable with it, and the resulting deb can be applied to multiple
machines. The latest gfs I could find (redhat cvs) appears to be
external modules, not patches to the kernel. My first attempt at
compiling (./configure ; make ) didn't work though.
