Wired News takes a
look at Chaos. "In early 2004, Chaos emerged as a Linux
distribution that could be booted from either a CD-ROM or a network. It
turned an ordinary Pentium computer into a working openMosix
node. OpenMosix is software that is added to the Linux kernel that allows
computers running Linux to work together in a cluster. With a cluster of
nodes (or PCs) linked together, the master node can serve processes to
them, drastically reducing the time needed to complete a specific task --
and without touching the computer's hard drive."
