Title: [Oscar-users] Fedora Core 5 newbie questions

Hi Brad:

The documentation included in our code repository is currently severely outdated, since OSCAR has undergone huge changes since 4.2.1 - we will definitely address this issue before 5.0 is released.

It is no longer necessary to run configure or anything like that, because you can simply start using OSCAR the moment you extract the contents from the tarball.

Anyways, assuming you're using the nightly tarball downloaded from the website, there is also a README which accompanied it:

http://oscar.openclustergroup.org/public/nightly/trunk/README

(it should also be in the top level directory of the tarball root)

Try following the instructions with our nightly tarballs and see if it works.

Please report back if you have problems!

Cheers,

Bernard

Subject: [Oscar-users] Fedora Core 5 newbie questions

I'm a bit of a cluster newbie, although I've programmed with MPI and used our cluster at work.

I'm installing a small personal cluster -- my hardware is quite new and I had problems with earlier versions of Fedora, so am using FC 5 and the beta of Oscar 5.0, per a previous post.

I've started the procedures for FC 5, but have run into some early snags.

* the .pdf doc files mentioned in the README don't exist, so I can't get the latest instructions
* the README in the doc folder mentions running the configure, but there is no configure script
* I read somewhere about a procedure for using:
> and then use the 'autogen.sh' to creat the configure and the required
> Makefile.* etc.
but I don't have such a script

Just a comment: it is fairly non-standard to have a system without a configure, isn't it? Or at least a ready way of creating it?

Thanks for any tips!

BTW, any additional FC5/Oscar 5.0 tips welcome!!!

Hardware:
ASUS Intel 945G mobos
Intel Core Duo cpus
1G RAM
Intel GLan controller (mobo)
+ Realtek PCI lan
80G SATA HD

(headnode is similar, with more disk space)
