Hi Laurent. |

According to the openmosix website, openmosix only supports x86 at the |
| 4 |
moment with plans to support ia64 and opteron in the future. Besides, I |
| 5 |
don't see how process migration etc. would work across very different |
| 6 |
architectures. So I'm afraid it's not going to work with your alpha box. |
