I haven't had a chance to play with ClusterKnoppix as yet, but it sounds very interesting. Just curious, how much did you have to remove from KNOPPIX 20030905, what did you remove exactly and what do you add?

TIA,

Does this one have auto detection & drivers for nForce2 motherboard onboard NIC?

Lack of nVidia chipset/NIC drivers has been a problem with the regular Knoppix releases.

I don't think so. besides the openmosix stuff, it uses the same kernel config as regular knoppix.

That's a rotten shame that a lot of people who have nForce2 motherboards are going to be left out of being able to use Knoppix online.

Arkaine23's Overclockix works but I'd also have liked to keep using standard or cluster Knoppix or too.

If you have any pointers where I can find those drivers I can offcourse include it in my next release

nVidia has the source code on their Linux driver page. You'll have to compile it so Knoppix can auto detect and install durring boot. Arkaine23 already did this in Overclockix. Maybe you could get his ISO and just extract the compiled binary. I know it works great for my Abit NF7-S nForce2 motherboard's onboard NIC chip.
