Hi All, The list has been very quiet lately... :-)
I've been trying, yet again, to install the latest xcpu2 in a test cluster. Ron's instructions on the xcpu.org site seem to be outdated, and partly buggy too. For instance, here are a couple of points: - After doing: make xcpu-tarball make ramfs-tarball make install I don't know whether xcpu2 has actually been built (I suspect not), and it certainly has not been installed (e.g. no xrx, or xcpufs, or any of that stuff has been installed). - The command export u=`uname -r` ./mk-initramfs-oneSIS -f initrd-$u.img $u -nn -rr \ -o ../overlays/xcpu-64 \ -w e1000 \ -w forcedeth \ -w ext3 should really be ./mk-xcpu-oneSIS .... in order that the 9p and 9pnet modules get loaded into the initrd. Can someone please take a look and revise the instructions (and let us mere mortals know what to do)? Furthermore, is xcpu2 actualy useable for production work? What about its integration with a scheduler/resource manager? What about MPI? Regards, Daniel
