+My notes on getting a CEPH cluster up and running using the 4 tiger machines.
+===== June 1 =====
+Got CEPH up and running today.
+Finished installing two 500GB hard drives in tiger2.
+Used a ceph.conf file partially based on this one: http://ceph.newdream.net/wiki/Installing_on_Debian
+Those instructions were also very useful in setting everything up.
+I also downloaded linux kernel 2.6.8 source, compiled it, and installed it on tiger1. You have to do this in order to get the CEPH module so you can mount ceph.
+===== May 25 =====
+Started by installing two 500gb hard drives into tiger1.
+Following instructions on http://www.ece.umd.edu/~posulliv/ceph/cluster_build.html
+Downloaded the source code for ceph and exported it over nfs so that the other computers will be able to use the same code.
+Working on compiling kernel so I can enable CEPH in the kernel.
+Using instructions here: https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B_nTbpzPbbNJOTljYjVhNTQtOTgwYi00NTI4LThlOWEtZTFiOGEyOTE5MWIy to help with compiling the kernel.
+Note: I'm installing kernel 2.6.30 because for apt couldn't download the source for 2.6.32
+Nevermind. Found instructions at
