Re: [gentoo-cluster] gentoo 2006.1 + openmosix-sources-2.6.12.r577 + openmosix-user?

ok so follow the hpc how to: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/hpc-howto.xml
but modify for diskless which you seem to have got the hang of.

distcc: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/distcc.xml
for compiling

for the competitive evolution experiments, have you written them, are
they parallelized, if not a queuing system would allow you to run many
jobs and maximise usage of the machines.

For anyone else interested I did an ebuild:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69553

for drqueue I will stick up another shortly for the latest version
which has a number of improvements, I'll also do a quick how to as
I've made it easier to setup and use drqueue than for other distros.
