Hi,

This is what I'm looking at.  I have a dual p5, dual p6, and 3 dual
PII that I would like to clucster.  Obviously not a mix that promotes
commercial efficiency.  But a good cross section for concept development.
IMHO this "hobby level" model is what would best serve the free community.

This appeals to me, when I went to the MOSIX site I only saw linux code,
can anyone point me at bsdi code?
