I tried that myself with OpenSSI 0.9.9. One problem I ran into is that 
cluster_mkinitrd grabs the LTS version of libc and several other 
libraries, which are incompatible with the 2.4.18-18.7.x_ssi_3ssi 
kernel. It also made me nervous that I was significantly backrevving 
several packages, which broke dependencies of some non-SSI packages.

The next release will be based on Red Hat 9 packages, so it will be 
inherently compatible with that distro.
