Hmmm.....from what I remember the laptop I was testing it on didn't work with 
it. 
However, I've got two servers on the way and 3 sitting here now. (+ 2laptops)
And I'm hoping to expand in addition to this. But right now I"m taking masters 
classes
so once break comes around I should everything assembled and I"ll be able to 
tell you
if it runs. 

Also, question/. When doing the install, it automatically installs a 
distribution of linux onto 
the computer. Do you think it  would be possible to set them all up with that 
linux distribution
and then as a secondary OS to use for parallel computing algorithms we are 
developing, dual
boot into ubuntu limux as well. So that when I need the beowulf cluster, I can 
have them all network
boot and all connect for the cluster, but turn them off and then reboot them 
into Ubuntu when
necessary. Also, two other things.

1) What's the best way to boot the cluster? From the main node and do a network 
boot or by hand?

2) What happens if a node gets dropped. In the case that one of the machines 
goes down. What do I do?? Just reboot it? If it reboots will it rejoin the 
network automatically? Is it possible to take a node off the network while its 
all running purposely?


Sorry for all the question! I'm very excited to set this up!
