Is anyone out there using openmosix 2.6 on the AMD architecture? I am
considering building out a gentoo system and am curious how the overall
experience has been.

Sincerely,
Wes Wagner

I have a test system running 2.6.17 om kernel on a i386 platform with omuscd
- gentoo 2006.1 - it was only marginally tricky to get it running. My main
concerns are amd and 64 bit architecture issues at this point, which is why
I am asking if anyone has particular experience. I know I could use the
i386/686 architecture on an amd processor and it would be compatible, but it
would certainly not be optimal.

openmosix is under development for 2.6 kernel and i tried to use it for
gentoo , but let me advise u and told you dont try for gentoo becouse it is
complex work and i did not successe in gentoo , but use fedora core 1 with
2.4 openmosix and it is ok
kind regard

Just to let you know amd64 is the main dev platform of oM 2.6 (although
for now the development is paused, because of no time ...).

oM2.6 is far from being functional at this rate, I am sorry

How much work do you think it entails right now to move base functionality
into beta? What we are doing right now is research and development work. We
probably can help with the bugs we discover, but do not likely have the time
to spin up to actually add features and functionality.

About a month or two (full time)

Problem is there are still some features needed, but most of the work
left is bug ... to be fixed
