I am at the point in my beowulf cluster construction where I need to pick the Linux distribution to use. I have a small cluster (10 nodes, CISCO switch, a single control machine). The cluster will support parallelizing/benchmarking a finite element program using MPI. I am currently the only prospective user, and don't need sendmail and a bunch of that stuff. Just dev tools. Any comments on which Linux flavor to start with? I've read some jabs at Fedora. Can't find a FAQ (after about 4 hours of searching) that really discusses the pros and cons of each Linux variant related to Beowulf clusters. I know religion is a hot topic, but please don't flame the agnostic. :) Jeff -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
