OpenMosix

Posted by Hemos on from the mosixing-the-night-away dept.

Francesco Taurino writes "Moshe Bar has released a new Mosix system: openMosix. From the site: "For thousands of users Mosix has been a reliable, fast and cost efficient clustering platform. There are hundreds of Mosix installations in life sciences, finance, industry, high tech, research and government environments. The goal of openMosix is to give to these users a continued support and an up-to-date platform. openMosix is initially fully compatible with the last Mosix (1.5.2 for 2.4.13) kernel, but is now growing in its own direction. If you would like to contribute to the openMosix project, drop a line to moshe@openmosix.org.""

    Which is really odd, cos when I saw 'OpenVMS' I assumed Open source OS.
    Oh well, so much for downloading that and installing it on a PC for obscurity value. :)

    You are probably thinking of that cereal commerical where a squirrel is chasing this guy trying to get his "cluster of oats" cereal.
