well cluster knoppix http://bofh.be/clusterknoppix/ comes with OpenMosix and 
LTSP.That shud settle almost everything.And u can install knoppix.All u need is 
PXE enabled lan-card or u cud download the BOOT-ROM image from 
www.etherboot.org.

Setting up a cluster is much simplified this way.

Try using LTSP www.ltsp.org and Debian GNU/Linux.

386DX /486 with 8 mb of ram can be used as terminals
  
486 and above with suitable  display cards can be used as X-terminals

Take a stock of them and inform me the details.  I shall help you.
If you want a trial installation you can have it at ilug's meeting
place or in my house on any sunday afternoon.
