Hello, I am getting nearer and nearer to finishing a DL/eLSD variant CD boot OS
that will include everything needed to build another Cd Boot OS. I am also
trying to seperate the initrd and ramdisk file systems ( now called Virtual
memory file system, from the latest stable kernel )
-- should ramdisk.tar.bz2 be changed to vmfs.tar.bz2 ??
While surfing on the topic of clustering I found the following projects on
SourceForge:
##User Mode Linux
UML means "User Mode Linux". It is a possiblity to Run Linux inside itself.
The User-mode Linux Kernel Home Page: http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/
User-Mode Linux is a safe, secure way of running Linux versions and Linux
processes.Run buggy software, experiment with new Linux kernels or
distributions, and poke around in the internals of Linux, all without risking
our main Linux setup.
User-Mode Linux gives you a virtual machine that may have more hardware and
software virtual resources than your actual, physical computer.
Disk storage for the virtual machine is entirely contained inside a single file
on your physical machine.
You can assign your virtual machine only the hardware access you want it to
have.
With properly limited access, nothing you do on the virtual machine can change
or damage your real computer, or its software.
## On the Extreme side: openMosix based on Mosix, a transparant clustering
linux system -- now proprietary: http://www.mosix.com/
openMosix is a Linux kernel extension for single-system image clustering.
from the openMosix-website: http://openmosix.sourceforge.net/
openMosix is the GPLv2, Open Source, project to extend Prof. Barak's
outstanding Mosix project.
New releases of Mosix became proprietary software in late 2001 and openMosix
was begun February 10, 2002 by Moshe Bar to keep this highly regarded Linux
clustering solution available as open source.
openMosix quickly acquired an international team of volunteers that captured
prior releases of the GPL code and started to immediately improve and extend
the solution.
