Rich,
I was just about to go the SCSI route when the firewire patch came out and I
have 2 machines available with firewire and 500MB RAM each.
Once I get this up and running I might try the NBD method that Brian Hengen
suggested last week. 
Someone on site here is talking about building a Tru64 cluster soon so I may
have the chance to play with shared SCSI at someone else's expense. We can
only hope. 
In the meantime the past fortnight has taught me a heck of a lot about the
linux kernel.

I just got my disk formatted so I have 80GB to share with my other box when
I get home. The RAC part is going to be easy after this.

I should think that a document will come out this in the hope that it helps
someone somewhere down the line.

Mike

Ahhhh....you're using Wim Coekaerts' Firewire mod.  I wonder if that's
what's giving you grief and not OCFS?  Please?

We should be able to test RAC with a dual-ended SCSI or SAN.
<pray>Hopefully we won't have those problems!</pray>

Keep us informed of your progress!  GL!

Rich
