Then I got the openMosix 2.4.20 kernel image from the clusterKnoppix site and put it on a Morphix hd install, then also did an apt-get for openmosix (the tools) and openmosixview. I put the same /etc/openmosix.map file on that machine, started openmosix (/etc/init.d/openmosix start) and I had a two machine cluster up and running, that easy!
The default debian packages for Openmosix/openmosixview are way outdated. I'm using autodiscovery on ClusterKnoppix which doesn't need an openmosix.map or /etc/hpc.map file, thats why it was outcommented and not used.
