Okay.  I haven't been there but have been thinking about it <G>.  I tried to 
check out openmosix but the kernel version they support doesn't have XFS 
built in so I have to wait until they decide to support 2.4.23 which does 
have XFS - in short: I gave up on openmosix for a while.

You say it doesn't work and mention the bugs - can you tell me more before I 
try it.

Thanks.
