Thanks everyone. I got it. I will be using MPICH for my cluster. And
my distro would be Ubuntu Giutsy Gibbon. It already has support for
x86-64 architecture and SMP. So now i have to install MPICH. Hope
everything goes well.

Sandip, sorry that we have put you off from using Mosix.
As Tony Travis said, it is appropriate for a lot of workloads - and I
have supported it in a bioinformatics role at the Natural History
Museum.

Hello, John and Sandip.

In fact, you can install LAM MPI from the Ubuntu repositories and I'm using it under openMosix. We spent a lot of time trying to get MPICH working reliably with the 'mpd' device, but it seemed very fragile on our Beowulf. If you are not experienced, LAM is a lot easier to use.

Best wishes,

        Tony.
