Let us not forget CENTos for those of us that require a longer lifespan for our operating systems.

I have one cluster that uses CENTOS 3, CENTOS 4 and controls its storage via Solaris 10. The next major upgrade will retire the CentOS 3 machines (2.4 dual single core ghz opterons) and use CENTOS 5 on Dual Dual core or Dual Quad Core opterons.

There. I said it and I'm glad.

I don't know what it all means, or course -- you can build a perfectly
peachy cluster on Debian, SuSE, FreeBSD, Solaris, Windows in a pinch
(although you'll hate yourself LONG before you're done if you try), any
other linux distribution you might find, and ... yes ... Fedora.

Oh, and did I mention Scyld and the "professional" turnkey type
clusters?

But let's get into all that in round two, when you have a bit more of an
idea what goes into cluster design and when we all have a bit more of an
idea of what KIND of cluster we need to be designing...;-)

Then I might even say "Fedora" again!
