Because it uses libvolume_id, you'll need this library in order to compile mkfs. The gfs and gfs2 code is included in version -094 of udev on kernel.org. Future releases of FC6 and RHEL5 should come with this library installed in /usr/lib but if you're like me, developing on an FC5 box, you might not have it. So here's one way you can get it: 1. Point your web browser at: http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-094.tar.bz2 2. Download it somewhere. 3. Untar it: tar -xjf udev-094.tar.bz2 4. Compile with this command: make EXTRAS="extras/volume_id" install (Right now, udev doesn't compile and install libvolume_id by default, but I'm told it will eventually).
