Thanks Bruce, after rereading the faq, i reliezed that I had missed
"Only IA-32 is currently supported. The port of openMosix to the Intel(r)
Itanium(tm) IA-64 Processor Family is complete. Project plans for openMosix'
second year include porting to the 64-bit AMD Opteron(tm) processor."

   1. does openmosix support clusters composed of different

so the mixed acrh maybe would be slick, but openmosix only supports IA32 for
now.

   2. if a openmosix user were to utilize existing workstations, could

   3. how does the LTSP modual work? the workstations run openmosix and a

i have this impression, q2 and q3, but didnt find documentations that spells
it out (in slow small words :)
