    Currently the MOSIX patch can be applied only to the x86 Linux kernel.

So, no. It does not support multiple archs. Previous incarnations of it
have been for various OS/Archs, but currently only on x86.

And, you'll want openmosix, its much more active and better supported,
just compare the mailing lists: since the beginning of August there have
been three posts on the Mosix list, while there have been 15 on the
openmosix list this weekend (most posts are support related).
