Would it be possible to add the OpenMosix kernel patch so as to make DSL able to join a cluster, not to run OpenMosix, but to join to an existing cluster.
This would be similar in function to the Plump OS floppy edition, which can join to a cluster provided you run the same Openmosix kernel editions.

I support the addition of openMosix into DSL, when linked over the internet, that potentially provide every Linux program to run with the power of a supercomputer behind it.

That will win over a lot of Window base users.

yeah, that would be very cool. Sorta like clusterknoppix light

btw guys, check out clusterknoppix if you havent, its pretty neat.

FYI,

Since DSL is also based on knoppix it would take a similar effort to add mosix support so it is quite possible.

Good luck. Hope you succeed.

what if you set up the open mossix kernel manually?

will this work?
