First of all, I'd like to say thank you to all openMosix developers. We are doing statistical physics simulations here, and these typically need lots of CPU power, but next to no communication between threads. Thus, a cluster of "workstations" (diskless nodes, actually) is ideal for us. We have two clusters here, both of which run openMosix, and we're very happy with them. (In case you're curious: the larger one has 94 nodes.) Right now, we are in the process of assembling yet another cluster. Because of the hardware we've chosen, we need a few features that are not yet in the mainline kernel (notably the sky2 network driver). Therefore, I've created a patch against Andrew Morton's 2.6.15-mm4 source. It is mostly untested, but in case anyone is interested, you can find it here: http://www2.thphy.uni-duesseldorf.de/~ansgar/downloads.shtml The direct link to the patch file is: http://www2.thphy.uni-duesseldorf.de/~ansgar/openmosix-2.6.15-mm4.patch.bz2 A. -- Ansgar Esztermann Researcher & Sysadmin http://www2.thphy.uni-duesseldorf.de/~ansgar
