I finally got this solved with some help from this list. Your comment about the 9P filesystem is interesting as I'm somewhat interested in an operating system for a cluster, and the 9P operating system, from what I've read, was designed as a distributed system from the start. It is a pity there seems to have been so little software ported to run on it. I've also played a little with xcpu (http://xcpu.org/) and may install that in the summer.
