Installation

Building a cluster with oneSIS is a straight-forward process. The first step is to get your nodes to boot NFSroot. Once NFS is setup and the infrastructure is in place to send a kernel to every node, any cluster nodes can be booting quickly into a diskless NFSroot environment.

More information on installing and configuring oneSIS can be found in the oneSIS HOWTO at http://onesis.org/oneSIS-HOWTO.php.

Any installed linux distribution can be copied and used as the master image for your cluster. Several distributions are currently well-supported. Look in the `distro-patches' directory in the source tree to see well-supported distributions. See section 4.6 for information on how to port to a new distribution.
