[A L. <al...@ma...>]

Hello all,

I have been told recently that OpenMosix is dead or dying.  Since their
website explains that the project will continue until March 2008, and since
there still seems to be an OpenMosix mailing list, I am still motivated to
get the software working on my system.  I also understand that a nonbeta
kernel is in the works right now.  Even though support may be ending
officially (in about a year) OpenMosix is still very useful to me and I'd
like to pursue it.

Can someone please help?  I feel that my questions are *very* basic - if
anyone can answer some or all of them I will be grateful.  I have 3
questions:

A) Can OpenMosix work with Fedora Core 6?

B) Which set of instructions should I follow for Fedora Core 6?  (I see 2
possibilities):
http://howto.x-tend.be/openMosix-HOWTO/x434.html
Or is it this:
http://howto.x-tend.be/openMosix-HOWTO/x340.html

C) Finally, what do I need to download exactly?  I think it would be:
openmosix-kernel-2.6.15-openmosixbeta.i686.rpm
openmosix-tools-0.3.6-2.i386.rpm

But I am unsure.

It is a pleasure to join your community!
