Well, the head node is already fully configured with Centos4. I
figured changing the kernel would be a lot lot easier than replacing the
entire OS and reconfiguring everything (configuration being the
result of over a years work...)

Yes, I know, however this doesn't _seem_ to be quite production use yet.
I probably will try to port the RH patches (if any are even needed) to
kernel 2.6.14.4 and then apply openmosix 2.6 on top of that. We'll see
when I have the time for this and if it's even possible.
Thanks,
MaZe.
