For the most part, openMosix is just process migration with
function shipping of system calls back to a process' home node.

OpenSSI is a much more comprehensive SSI solution, where
every process on every node can see all resources in the
cluster. To achieve proper semantics in this environment,
it's necessary for OpenSSI to modify some user-mode programs.

or independant from any distrib so it will work anywhere
using the  kenrel version

like openmosix does since years & years.

It takes a non-trivial amount of effort to port OpenSSI to a
new distro, but it's not terribly hard. Somebody just has to
be willing to take ownership for the port of OpenSSI to a
new distro.
