you could read thru the article at the url above. i don't have *any* supercomputer cluster howto skills, yet. abhishek on this list had some ideas, but he's migrated to hyderabad. am sure there are others on this list who could show us how to do this. i know that there's a cd of knoppix, called 'clusterknoppix' that does an amazing thing. pop copies of the cd into each pc connected on a network and boot them to create your on-the-boot cluster supercomputer. ymmw. sandip, do you think you could help on this? supreet has experimented a bit with clusters i recall. who all would like to research and volunteer to set this up, please? i think this is a fantastic idea. a volunteer, weekend, instant supercomputer. a maggie, two-minute google. a supercomputer for the heck of it. let's do this, guys! :-) LL _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
