Hi Tony,

I'm in the same situation as your are: I'm running an openMosix cluster, but since it's more and more difficult to integrate new hardware with an old 2.4.26 kernel I think that I have to move to MOSIX2. I just got the latest version of MOSIX2 sent from Amnon Barak (I'm using the cluster for academic work), and started to play around with installations ... yet I had some kernel crash problems that I could not yet resolve on one of the machines. So I guess without the $1,000 per year support
fee it'll also be difficult to run a MOSIX2 cluster ...

Hello, Jürgen.

I ported 2.4.26-om1 to compile it using the 'new' GNU tool-chain and run it under Ubuntu 6.06.1. I also patched the kernel.org 2.4.32 sources for openMosix (to get SATA drivers). However, I couldn't get openMosix process migration working properly between 2.4.32-om1 kernels...

Ironically, process migration worked between a 2.4.26-om1 and 2.4.32.om1 kernel! Anyway, I gave up the attempt at 2.4.32-om1, and just continued to use my version of 2.4.26-om1 in production with SCSI controllers. If you're interested, my Ubuntu 6.06.1 openMosix deb's are at:

Are you going to continue using MOSIX2?

        Tony.
