You might also look into FAI, and diskless. Diskless is a bit difficult to set up, you have to install and verify tftpd and dhcp3-server, and make a pretty extensive dhcpd.conf and /etc/exports. But once it's set up, administration is easy -- on the head node, just chroot into the new "root", install packages, etc. The docs are quite good.Hey all, I'm in need of some help/advise. I'm working on a project for a HS extracircular activity and my plan was to build a beowulf. But with 2 wks till i need to be done, its turned into a 16 node openMosix cluster. Obviously, with all those machines I really don't want to install and recompile each machine, so...
1)my plan is to get one node working and dd'ing the two HDs (dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb); since all these machines are identical, with should work right? if not, is there anoher way?
Zeen, --
