ParallelKnoppix是一份重新打造的Knoppix，它可以用LAM-MPI和/或MPI的实现MPICH来配置并行处理机集群。如果这些机器都配置有PXE网卡，让集群启动并运转只需不到15分钟。
Michael Creel has announced the release of ParallelKnoppix 2.3: "Version 2.3 is released. This version synchronises all packages to current Debian unstable and fixes some bugs. In particular, the annoying hang at boot time that sometimes occurred has been solved. Also, the compute nodes can be booted using copies of the CD. This is useful if you can't get PXE boot to work for some reason and your cluster is not too large." Read the brief release announcement on the project's home page. Download: parallelknoppix-2.3.iso (513MB, MD5). ParallelKnoppix is a KNOPPIX-based distribution that makes it simple to set up a cluster of computers for parallel processing using the LAM-MPI and/or MPICH implementations of the Message Passing Interface (MPI).
