Ok here is what I do.

I logged into the head node and from the head node I ssh to one of the 
compute nodes as the user that I used on the head node. Compute node 
lets me just fine.  Then I su - and I put in the root password for the 
head node and now I am root on the compute node.  home reflects 
everything that is not the head node and the fstab file is as follows:

/dev/hda6       /       ext3    defaults        1       2
/dev/hda5       swap    swap    defaults        0       0
/dev/hda1       /boot   ext3    defaults        1       2
/dev/shm        /dev/shm        tmpfs   defaults        1       2
/dev/fd0        /mnt/floppy     auto    noauto,owner    0       0
none    /dev/pts        devpts  defaults        0       0
none    /proc   proc    defaults        0       0
nfs_oscar:/home /home   nfs     rw      0       0


so it looks like home is getting mounted of the head node.

The question still remains why I can not complete the installation from 
the head node.

thanks.
