[Quantian-general] Current dvd version and openmosix

I wanted to explore clustering using Quantian and
Chaos, since Quantian has interesting applications
that can use clustering.

After booting the latest dvd version (0.7 something),
setting up the network and testing it all around
successfully, I opened openmosixview: not a single
node. To make a long story short, I haven't been able
to start openmosix with the dvd version. At one point
I even get the message "this is not an openmosix
system" when trying /etc/init.d/openmosix start.
Starting the openmosix terminal server doesn't do
anything.

So I've tried with the cd version I saw on the
mirror's site. It is based on an older version of
Knoppix, so it doesn't auto recognize my wifi on the
laptop. Too bad. But I've loaded it on another
machine, and it when I saw that it counted it's node
in openmosixviewer, I loaded the dvd version of
Quantian on another machine. The other machine still
did not see any nodes. So I've loaded Chaos on this
other machine, and Quantian-cd-version (old Knoppix)
saw both nodes. Great! I've tested some apps and the
apps were migrated to the other nodes.

So I've come to the conclusion that Openmosix is not
set up properly on the latest dvd version of Quantian.

Anyone else can provide input on this?

Denis
