LCII Cluster?

Author	Topic
MacMoose Junior Member USA 176 Posts	Posted - 17 Jan 2002 : 08:19:55 Alright, I've got these four LCII's that I don't know what to do with. My main idea right now is to see if maybe I could set them up as a cluster (beowulf)to crunch SETI work units or Prime Number research. I don't know too much about Linux on 68k Macs, but it should be possible, right. All four LCII's have identical specs: 80MB HD, 10MB RAM, 10BaseT ethernet, System 7.0.1. Anybody here know much about this? Have I set my hopes too high? ------------------ MacMoose Medical Spec., 68k MLA Total 68K Macs liberated: 6 and counting ------------------
