Man I hope it's not the latter...although with your shifts it probably is...on a semi related note, does anyone have any information on clustering with Gentoo?

Gentoo has many packages that support clustering in some way or another: cook, distcc, openldap (slapd/slurpd), jboss, etc. There is nothing Gentoo-specific about them as far as I know.

Depends on what you want to do: Theres openmosix, where you have multiple pc's exchanging jobs without the user taking notice. I think www.openmosix.org is your friend, there's also a openmisix kernel in gentoo... Then you can use MPI, which doesn't require a patched kernel, but still lets you run on programm on several pc's. And there are services for distributed computing like distcc. The simpliest solution. I once had a p60 and a p133 together as an openmosix-cluster but that was with a tuned suse6.2. Arnold -- Get my public-key from pgp.mit.edu or pgp.uni-mainz.de --- Hi, I am a .signature virus.

Re: [gentoo-user] the last two days
ext3 seems to work fine with ghost 7.5 now. Just make sure the partitions stay the same size. It Likes that. Ghost 7.5 is the large enterprise version ghost and Ghost 2003 is comparable to it.
