Hi,
see, in fact it is not huge commercial solution what i need - i'm
interested in squeezing every single electron from machines i have in
school, and i thought that for some applications cluster is the best
method of sharing computing power. i'm not thinking (yet) about
optimizing it to some particular function. i simply wanted to know how
clustrer works and how it makes use of multiple machines. but, the
system has to satisfy one limitation - it must be completly usuable in
floppy-booting mode (machines i can use are normally used under control
of Micro$oft (r) Win*** (tm) eXPloit Sewer and i cannot reinstall their
systems without being sucked from school, so i can incorporate them into
cluster only by booting system from another medium, prefferably from
floppy). as far i've tested openMosix, and it works quite good. maybe in
future i will be given a real server-farm, where i could set up
everything sane. but now i need only links to some solutions, so i can
test them.
thanks for your help
