what is "setting up mfs ? mean
thanks

I just recently tried to setup several nodes with clusterKNOPPIX 3.6 CDs and the cheatcode "knoppix toram." If I boot normally from CD (no cheats) or from hdd (after knoppix-installer + setting up mfs) openmosixviewer can see all the nodes and all the migration. If I use toram, I only see the local node, sometimes I see a remote node in red.... Is there a fix for this?
TIA,
AJG

Take a look at:

for plener: first u make sure ur master node is up and can access the network, then u set up the knoppix openmosix terminal server as stated, then u make sure your client node's network card support pxe boot (u need to enable network boot in your BIOS), then just start ur client node.

I finally found you guys that used quantian successfully, do u mind give me a little hint about my problem?
I may start quantian in my vmware (boot:migshm), and set up the openmosix terminal server successfully, and then my node and PXE boot from it, my openmosixview also found 2 cpus now, however, while i just randomly open some applications to see if the load is being migrated and the other cpu is not showing any load at all.
and I found this error on the other node saying that:
openMosix: Auto-migration of local-processes from this node re-enabled
openMosix: guest-processes now accepted again
MFS already mounted!
omdiscd[2774]: bind failed on interface 0: Address already in use
omdiscd[2774]: Unable to initialize network. Exiting.
any comments are greatly appreciated
I've never gotten PXE to wprk right in my lab.
I recommend all nodes boot a CD or all nodes be hdinstalled. I've recently had more success with a CD only distro (no hdinstall option) that runs on a 200MB CD and, as a rexult, boots about as fast as hdinstall. This distro in BCCD (Bootable Cluster CD) which also uses openMOSIX. Maybe you sould try it!

Thx Jorge:
The reason I used quantian PXE boot my slave nodes is that my slaves don't have DVD ROM, but anyways, I did progress a bit and see the load of the cpu shifting back and forth to different nodes using the IBM test script testapp.c here (thx to a friend who mentioned this in the early post)

I did try BCCD, and it appears not to support my netword card, so...what a pity.
It's real hard for the openmosix to utilize unless u use some big software such as blender or stuff...so openmosix is really got to develop much further.
Keep in touch, thx!
