As the purpose of clump/os is to add nodes to a cluster, it is assumed that you already have a running MOSIX cluster -- or perhaps only a single MOSIX node -- from which you will be initiating jobs. All machines in the cluster must conform to the following requirements:
clump/os Machine(s) 586+ CPU,
bootable CD-ROM
NIC
64M+ RAM (the system is loaded entirely into a ramdisk; this means that you should have at least 64M of RAM (and likely more) to accommodate the approx. 16M ramdisk, space needed for Linux itself, and space for your work. This approach was chosen so that the same CD-ROM can be used to configure multiple systems.)
Master Machine(s) Linux 2.4.17, MOSIX 1.5.7 (manually configured)
Network Environment Running DHCP server (f you don't, or won't, run DHCP, you can still manually configure your system; see Problems? and Expert Mode. Using DHCP is highly recommended, however, and will greatly simplify your life in the long run. )
The following network modules are present, although not all support auto-probing; if you don't see support for your card in this list, then clump/os will not work for you even in Expert Mode.
3c501.o 3c503.o 3c505.o 3c507.o 3c509.o 3c515.o 3c59x.o 8139cp.o 8139too.o 82596.o 8390.o ac3200.o acenic.o at1700.o cs89x0.o de4x5.o depca.o dgrs.o dl2k.o dmfe.o dummy.o e2100.o eepro.o eepro100.o eexpress.o epic100.o eth16i.o ewrk3.o fealnx.o hamachi.o hp-plus.o hp.o hp100.o lance.o lp486e.o natsemi.o ne.o ne2k-pci.o ni5010.o ni52.o ni65.o ns83820.o pcnet32.o sis900.o sk98lin.o smc-ultra.o smc9194.o starfire.o sundance.o sungem.o sunhme.o tlan.o tulip.o via-rhine.o wd.o winbond-840.o yellowfin.o
Please also note that clump/os may not work on a laptop, definitely doesn't support PCMCIA cards, and will probably not configure MOSIX properly if your machine contains multiple connected Ethernet adapters; see Note 1. This is a temporary limitation of the configuration scripts, and the Release 3/4 kernels which are compiled without CONFIG_MOSIX_TOPOLOGY
