 Okay here is an short explanation what to install on your Servers to set up lustre quickly.
 Be aware that this don't replace the Documentation and Installation Howtos from Lustre.
 
-You've to download the linux-source-2.6.18|21|22 package and the linux-patch-lustre package.
 
-Then patch your kernel with the correct patch file. Build and install it. (Use make-kpkg)
-To patch the kernel automatically use --added-patches=lustre as build option.
+#1. Building the kernel and the modules
+    You've to download the linux-source-2.6.18|21|22 package and the linux-patch-lustre package.
 
-Here is the full line how I build my kernel (for those who are not familiar with make-kpkg)
-make-kpkg --added-patches=lustre --initrd --append-to-version "-quota-enabled-lustre-1.6.4.1" --revision credativ.1 kernel_image
+    Then patch your kernel with the correct patch file. Build and install it. (Use make-kpkg)
+    To patch the kernel automatically use --added-patches=lustre as build option.
 
-Now reboot into this new kernel and install the lustre modules with:
- - m-a auto-install lustre
+    Here is the full line how I build my kernel (for those who are not familiar with make-kpkg)
+    make-kpkg --added-patches=lustre --initrd --append-to-version "-quota-enabled-lustre-1.6.4.1" --revision credativ.1 kernel_image
 
-Then the kernel and the modules should be there. 
+    Now reboot into this new kernel and install the lustre modules with:
+     - m-a auto-install lustre
 
-In the next stepp install:
- - lustre-utils 
+    Then the kernel and the modules should be there. 
 
-Then load the kernel modules with:
- - modprobe lnet 'network="tcp0(eth0)"' or with the configuration settings that meet your needs.
- - modprobe lustre
- - modprobe ldiskfs
+#2. Preparing the system
+    In the next stepp install:
+     - lustre-utils 
 
-This have to be done on every server system. 
-Now you'll have to differentiate between the OST and MDT and MGS Systems
-We'll assume here that MDT and MGS are on the same system:
+    Then load the kernel modules with:
+     - modprobe lnet 
+     - modprobe lustre
+     - modprobe ldiskfs
 
- - Create partitions:
-    - MGS/MDT: mkfs.lustre --fsname spfs --mdt --mgs /dev/sda
-    - OST: mkfs.lustre --fsname spfs --ost --mgsnode=mgsnode at tcp0 /dev/sda
+    This have to be done on every server system. 
 
-    Additional options are:
-        --reformat                       - this partition was previously formated with lustre, reformat it
-        --param="failover.mode=failout"  - don't hang the complete fs if a ost isn't available.
+#3. Creating partitions on the OST/MDT/MGS Servers
+    Now you'll have to differentiate between the OST and MDT and MGS Systems
+    We'll assume here that MDT and MGS are on the same system:
 
- - Now mount the partitons on the servers:
-    - first the MDT/MGS Server:
-      - mount -t lustre /dev/sda /mnt
-    - now the OST's
-      - mount -t lustre /dev/sda /mnt
+     - Create partitions:
+        - MGS/MDT: mkfs.lustre --fsname spfs --mdt --mgs /dev/sda
+        - OST: mkfs.lustre --fsname spfs --ost --mgsnode=mgsnode at tcp0 /dev/sda
 
-Okay this was all.
-Now you can mount this filesytem on a client like this:
+        Additional options are:
+            --reformat                       - this partition was previously formated with lustre, reformat it
+            --param="failover.mode=failout"  - don't hang the complete fs if a ost isn't available.
 
-  - mount -t lustre mgsnode at tcp0:/spfs /mnt
+     - Now mount the partitons on the servers:
+        - first the MDT/MGS Server:
+          - mount -t lustre /dev/sda /mnt
+        - now the OST's
+          - mount -t lustre /dev/sda /mnt
 
-Using Quota:
+
+#4. Using the filesystem
+    In order to use the FS, you'll have to mount it on a client. Please note that this client also 
+    needs the lustre-modules to be installed. (You can install lustre-source and build the module 
+    as described in 1.)
+     - mount -t lustre mgsnode at tcp0:/spfs /mnt

+#4.1 Using Quota:
 
     The binaries and drivers for lustre in debian are compiled with enabled-quota. 
     So if you like to use quota this is quite simple:
