live CD that allows rapid creation of HPC clusters. I expect that this version

interested in receiving feedback about the security model. I _think_ it's
pretty much OK, except right at boot when a default password is left hanging
out there, but I'm not an expert. There is more information at the PK homepage,

Back in 2004 a similar item was used for rapid creation of heterogeneous
clusters and it was called FlashMob. A professor in California developed it,
though the main page looks quite abandoned and I doubt work is continuing on
it. My short attempts to get it up and running were largely failures, and
since I couldn't see exactly what was happening :) I grew angry and threw the
cds away. I wonder where this new item differs and where it is the same?
