If you want a working and tested free bproc based distribution you may
download it from our ftp server.
It is based on RedHat 7.3 (8.0 is rather messy)
ftp://ftp.harddata.com/pub/hddcs/3.2/2003-spring/
Docs are included.

<<<Snip>>>
>So, cutting down to our problem:
>
>We installed redhat 8.0 in two machines, named master and slave1. We
>setup nfs and rsh/rexec/rlogin and everything is working fine at kernel
>level. We can rsh from/to slave1/master without any password prompts,
>and pam looks ok too.
>
>We installed the 3.2.4 bproc/beowulf kernel patch in kernel 2.4.20,
>recompiled it and as it seems, everything looks fine.
>
>We sucessfully modprobed vmadump and bproc, configured our master's
>/etc/beowulf/config and all looked fine to go.
>
>However, when we tried running bpmaster (as root) it started, then
>segfaulted.

>Any sugestions, ideas, flames (those in pvt, pls) and the like would be
>very welcome. :)
