Subject: Heterogeneous Clusters?
Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2005 18:01:37 -0400
I am new to the Beowulf cluster scene of Linux, and was about to try
to set up a cluster in my basement.  My question for the gurus here is
what angle should I go for a heterogeneous cluster of machines?  Like
Openmosix, or whatnot.  Here are some system specifics

The front-end node node will be a 667 mhz Pentium 3, 64 mb of RAM, and
20 gig hard disk.

Another machine, node 1 will be a 350 mhz Pentium 2, 110 mb of RAM,
and a 5 gig hard disk.

Final node is just about identical to node 1 except it has 64 mb of RAM.

I know this is not a high performance cluster by any means, but I
would like to try and make a cluster, and I like Gentoo's flexibility,
but need to know if it is the best for my cluster setup.

Any opinions appreciated!
