Project Hobo

Does anyone have a prefered linux or Ubuntu distro that'd work well with chaining processors over a network? Did I mention they're different G/MHZ, and ram + hardware.. any help would be more than manual reading..

The Specs listed below may change with parts burning out or even be removed completely due to non-function.

The Cluster will be an ever expanding server cluster that will be rented or process student

school tasks. The connection is limited, and as such data is best processed in saved packs. I can't foresee at this moment what it can be used to do, but know it's got a chance of processing CAD data, and other mediums. One I personally wish to try is to map the structure of the local intranet state or even just county wide.

System Specs

PC1- HP Pavilion

PC2- HP Pavilion

PC3- Compaq Presario (in HP Pavilion case)

PC4- Gateway

PC5- KPM systems

OS- I've chosen with help to install FreeBSD on the systems.

I am told it'll manage the diversity.

Though now that I think about it there's a FreeBSD system I'd like to Install in place of the basic. I'll have to do research..(b_b)

I'm only planning to setup 5PC's at the moment. As more become stable I will Implement.

-Update.. Searching the net I found something called Haiku.. looking at it. Perhaps there might be a better idea.

Don't worry I'm testing on one machine before others. a 600mhz P3+256(Searching)
