I'm currently working on a version myself... here's what I'm planning on
doing:
Node0:
Operates as a firewall for the cluster. Runs a BootP/DHCP server, so that
the nodes can be remote/diskless boot (working on this right now. We have
one running PXE and Redhat, this is one I'm testing). Has MPICH debs
installed.
Nodex:
Node. DHCP/BootP (working on this right now).
MPICH installed.
Anyone have any critique of this implementation?
