Instant-Grid Description

Instant-Grid is a Knoppix-based live-CD bundled with a pre-configured grid environment based on the Globus Toolkit. Instant-Grid is a live-CD based on Knoppix bundled with a pre-configured grid environment based on the Globus Toolkit.One PC started from this CD becomes the Instant-Grid frontend. It also functions as a PXE boot-server, allowing other PCs in the same local network to boot the Instant-Grid environment.Together with the frontend, these PCs automatically form a working test grid. Like with the original Knoppix, the existing configuration of the participating PC is not touched (except maybe for enabling the PXE boot-option), and remains instantly available by a simple reboot.What's New in This Release:· This version is based on Knoppix 5.1.1, which improves support for more recent hardware.· The English documentation has been expanded, many function tests have been automated, and the workflow stability has been improved.
