Hello, Suppose I have 9 machine with the same hardware and want to have them as OSCAR cluster. I can install one of the OSCAR supported OS on all of them (ie. CentOS 4). Is there any way I can one of them to be the master head node, and 8 of the rest to be the compute node, without using OSCAR to create the image and imaging the disk of the compute nodes? Can I just install the necessary RPM and run some install scripts on the compute nodes with OS already pre-installed ?
The reason I'm asking is that because I'm having difficulties booting the compute nodes after it sucessfully installed the image from network booting. I keep getting "Kernel Panic". I asked the list about it here and still have not came up with a working solution: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=200802190850.29935.techlist%40pathfinder.phys.utk.edu&forum_name=oscar-users Thanks for any respond.
